About:

Partha is regarded as one of the pillars of the contemporary art education and a significant contributor to the modernist art movement in Bengal. His works are mostly oil on canvas, where he focuses on Indian woman, portraying the presence of ‘Devi Shakti’ in every woman. The faces are very striking, depicting the different qualities of woman, the capacity of loving, of baring pain and having the strength of Durga & Kali to face the world. This is his philosophy when stroking the canvases with his beliefs. With every stroke he brings out poetry, a feast to the eyes of an art lover.
