Item Number: 116324 Title: SAFIUDDIN AHMED Author: Falvo, Rosa Maria (ed) Price: Not Available ISBN: 9788857210766 Description: Milan: Skira, 2012. 31cm., hardcover, 285pp. illlus., most in color. Summary: This ook explores Safiuddin Ahmed’s drawings, paintings, woodcuts, and etchings, with more than two hundred color plates tracing a lifetime of artistic achievements that is virtually unknown in the West. Ahmed’s works portray swirling, vigorous forms and motifs, with spectacular symbols, such as eyes, fishing nets, and boats, continuously evoking the anxiety and disquiet of the times. For over sixty years, he has led the way in developing painting and printmaking in Bangladesh. Sophistication, a deep love of music, and a strong inclination to literature is what underpins Ahmed’s approach to life while his struggle for purity has always been his hallmark.
