Manjit Bawa
Untitled (Sohni), 1992. Oil on canvas.
0 notes
Manjit Bawa (1941 - 2008), a famous Indian artist studied at the School of Art in New Delhi and worked as a silkscreen painter in Britain, where he also studied between 1964 and 1971.
Often using animal imagery - tigers and lambs sharing the same space - Mr. Bawa sought to convey the message that people could coexist with animals in nature, said art critic Ena Puri, who wrote a biography of Mr. Bawa.
His canvases were distinguished by their colors - the ocher of sunflowers, the green of paddy fields, the red of the sun, and the blue of the mountain sky, she said.
"He was an icon, a person who was completely head and shoulders above his contemporaries," Puri said.

Additionally, MASH’s Facebook and Instagram pages provide regular updates on current exhibitions, important sales, and significant cultural events around the world.
Founder
Shalini Passi is a Delhi-based art collector, artist, and philanthropist, who sits on the Advisory Board of Khoj Studios since 2012 and serves as a longstanding Patron of the Kochi-Muziris Biennale.
Her collection includes some of the most coveted names in contemporary art, including Bharti Kher, Anita Dube, Sheba Chhachhi, Zarina Hashmi, and Atul Dodiya, alongside significant international artists such as Jeff Koons and Damian Hirst and Indian modernist masters, such as M.F. Husain, Manjit Bawa, and Ram Kumar. Shalini’s passion for art and design is evident in her vast collection of furniture, tapestries, and rare antiques, which are juxtaposed with cutting-edge contemporary design, including important pieces by Ron Arad, and Vladimir Kagan, and Herve Van Der Straeten. Located within Shalini’s Delhi home, which has been featured in prominent publications such as Wallpaper*, Architectural Digest, and Larry’s List, the collection evokes and celebrates a powerful individual narrative that speaks of Shalini’s connection with each piece, each history, and each artist. As a patron and collector, Shalini actively supports emerging artists and fosters arts education through the Foundation’s year-round programming.
