Summary

1. A seminal colorist whose career remains unparalleled in the history of South Asian modern art, V.S. Gaitonde (1924-2001) was known to fellow artists and intellectuals as well as to later generations of students and collectors as a man of uncompromising integrity of spirit and purpose. Accompanying landmark exhibitions at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York, and the Peggy Guggenheim Collection, Venice, this book of important paintings and works on paper explores the context of Indian modern art as it played out in the metropolitan centers of Mumbai and New Delhi from the late 1940s through the end of the twentieth century.
