  Bharat Ratna - a outstanding work by some of India’s most celebrated modern painters

  Hello Everyone,
  
  Bharat Ratna is a outstanding work by some of India’s most celebrated modern painters. The exhibition focuses on a generation of artists that emerged in the years following India’s independence from British rule in 1947. Luminaries such as Francis Newton Souza, Maqbool Fida Husain, and Sayed Haider Raza—founding member...s of the Progressive Artists Group. Their paintings are an international synthesis of visual traditions, embracing western modernism on the one hand and a heritage colored by the rich narrative of Indian art, myths, and classical traditions on the other.
  
  Had the opportunity to view the exhibit in Boston, MA USA last week - and I loved it! Will post pictures and when done will post the link here.
  
  Cheers,
  Sandy Riedel
