Ranjit Das
Bangladeshi artist, Ranjit Das is celebrated for his flamboyant
style and thought-provoking themes. From the beginning, Ranjit's works have
been close to the bucolic countryside and the rural way of life. A large number
of Ranjit's works depict villagers with domesticated and, often, wild animals.
Their passion, pain, pleasure, bliss, contentment and dreams emerge on his
canvas. All his works have in the background a story, which is familiar to us.
His works give the viewer a real picture of our socio-political and economic
structure. A figurative painter, Ranjit's works are distinguished for their
disciplined, mindful and imposing use of colour with the compositions of
semi-abstract and symbolic patterns.
