We at Prinseps pride ourselves on being not just an auction house but a storehouse of knowledge. After in-depth research and analysis conducted by experts and constantly keeping an eye for sublime luxury, we present our summer auction.

Modern Art The 1940s were a defining chapter for modern art in the country, with Indian artists practically th blooming and blossoming ... experimenting with their individual style, expressing their creativity, 6 July, 2021 making socio-political statements that would go on to be etched in time forever.

Arpana's introduction to paintings cam via sculpture after her tutelage under B.K. Gura. In the main, however, she is a self taught artist. She had a scholarship for advanced course in painting in St. Martius College of Art London 1979 but chose to return after a month as she missed her home & India. Her earliest exhibited paintings of 1974, of heavy muscular and rogynous women, are in a sombre palette. From the outset, she located her figures in the Punjabi milieu adopted by Amrita Sher Gil of women with their veils and thick khadi salwar-kameez texture on which the "Phulkaries" of Punjab could be embroidered. However Sher Gil's havelis and open spaces become congestive city pavements darkened corners, and Sher-Girl's melancholic figures of the "other" Indian appropriated by Arpana Caur as the tragic self. The relative isolation of the small urban family and the complexity of Arpana's own situation , of a fraught childhood with separated parents is seen in early paintings of her mother, her grandfather, and herself of the family selectively severed and then rejoined.

  • Bose Pacia Modern Presents an Exhibition of Paintings by New Delhi Artist Manjit Bawa Entitled Modern Miniatures Recent Paintings
    March 2000 New York - Bose Pacia Modern presents an exhibition of paintings by New Delhi artist Manjit Bawa entitled Modern Miniatures Recent Paintings. The show will run from April 08 through May 27. The gallery is located at 508 West 26th Street, 11th Floor, in Chelsea. Gallery hours are Tuesday through Saturday from 12-6 p.m. and by appointment. This is Bose Pacia Modern's inaugural exhibition in the gallery's new Chelsea location. On view is a collection of recent canvases and miniature works on paper by Manjit Bawa, one of India's most prominent contemporary artists. Bawa's paintings are modeled in a surreal manner and can be placed in a tradition of innovation and experiment that evokes elements of line and form of Kalighat and the Company School paintings, to the miniatures of the Mughal and Rajput ateliers. Mumbai based critic Ranjit Hoskote, writes in his catalogue essay that, "Bawa's art springs from the deft management of paradoxes, the melding of East and West into a strikingly hybrid image that renders irrelevant the reductive claims of Western Orientalism as well as of Indian nativism. Manjit Bawa's canvases and miniatures are populated with marvelous animals that defy zoology; brooding sages and pensive virgin-goddesses robed in the mystery of unknown motives, undeclared intentions. Often, humans and animals engage in a wordless dialogue that throws its participants back onto an older, nearly forgotten language of instinct and intuition. Standing before these paintings, we realize that Bawa has long been preoccupied with the theme of a universal language of communication." Standing in the gallery the viewer is surrounded by fantastic figures both human and animal.
