Pramod Ganapatye

Description

The first thing that strikes you when you see Ganapatye draw is that his line meanders but never wavers. This quivering line seems to vibrate with a kind of expressionistic restlessness that only a refined draftsman can achieve. Slowly an amoebic form starts to inhabit the paper. Within the contours of the line, the shifting appearance of the figure manifests itself. The figure classically occupies center stage. The line continues on its hypnotic journey creating folds of flesh interspersed with layers of wrapped saris. Details appear and disappear in search of the lyrical. The woman is divested with inner strength even in her loneliness. This artwork will be shipped flat with Crimson’s certificate of authenticity.
