These influences manifest in his use of bold lines, vibrant colors, and recurring motifs like peacocks, parrots, and lotus flowers. However, this affinity for tradition doesn't translate into mere replication.

Ramachandran, is a prominent Indian artist and sculptor, who was born in Kerala, in 1935. He pursued his bachelor’s degree in Malayalam Literature from Kerala University, followed by receiving Diploma in Fine Arts and Crafts from Kala Bhavan, Visva Bharti University at Santiniketan. Growing up in Kerala, the socio-political environment played a major influence on Ramachandran’s early works. He portrayed the oppression, violence and war, the social and political struggle of his home state, in a modernist way. The subjects; human figures, of most of his early paintings were segmented or disfigured and most of them were headless. Later in his life, traditional Indian art form, especially the vivid Rajashthani culture and their paintings in Nathadwara and miniature art form impacted his works. The murals in Kerala and Ajanta also played a major influence on his works. Ramachandran also admired the works of preeminent Indian artist Nandlal Bose. Gradually, he started incorporating the motifs and classical imagery from Indian art forms into his works. Rather than completely focusing on these motifs, the artist integrated this imagery into his paintings as a part of his subject’s clothes, jewellery, surroundings, etc. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRamachandran says that his painting, ‘Yayati’ played a pivotal role in his career as an artist. He could integrate the elements of conventional Indian art form, with mythological imagery in a contemporary form. Later he started exploring his male and female subjects in a sensuous setting and gradually moved towards celebrating life and nature in its various forms. Over his career, Ramachandran has exhibited his works in prestigious galleries such as Grosvenor Vadehra, London, Guild Art Gallery, Mumbai and New York. Art galleries have conducted his retrospective exhibitions in 2004 by Vadehra Art Gallery, in 2003 by National Gallery of Modern Art (NGMA), New Delhi, and in 1983 by Kumar Gallery at Art Heritage, New Delhi and Jehangir Art Gallery, Mumbai. Among many others, Ramachandran has also participated in various group shows, such as ‘Progressive to Altermodern’ at Grosvenor Gallery, London, (2009), ‘From Everyday to the Imagined: Modern Indian Art’ at Singapore Art Museum, Singapore ad the Museum of Art, Seoul (2007-08) the ‘Festival of India’ at Coups de Coeur, Geneva (1987), the Sao Paulo Biennale, Brazil (1979), the Menton Biennale, France (19740 and the New Delhi Triennale, India (1968). In the year 2005, the Government of India honoured Ramachandra by awarding him the prestigious Padma Bhushan. In 2003, he received the eminent Raja Ravi Verma Puraskar from the Government of Kerala. He was elected as a Fellow of the renowned Lalit Kala Akademi in 2002 and in 2013, Mahatma Gandhi University, Kerala, granted him an honorary doctorate.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"eikowa","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44146921308417,"sku":"EK-21-0003-S-0001","price":90000.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0671\/7947\/9297\/products\/aramachandraneikowa5258.jpg?v=1698910456"},{"product_id":"tv-untitled-26","title":"AR Untitled 2","description":"\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAchutan Ramachandran Nair, popularly known as A.

Often considered as the symbol of love, peace and hope, pigeons are also cohabitants of our cities and thus companions of our lives. Their constant cooing sounds and fluttering wings surround our lives, similar to how the sound of our honking cars, ever running factories and machines surround theirs. Amar’s paintings highlight the parallels between the lives and virtues of human beings and pigeons. He depicts the interaction between these birds and people on his canvas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHe uses a calming combination of blues and reds for his human subjects, accompanied by white, yellow and gold for his birds. His colour pallet represents peace, harmony and cohesive existence of the birds and human beings together. The various shades of reds and pinks signify the presence of love in the society, and blue reflects harmony. One can also observe that the human subjects of Amar’s paintings are often seen holding a flute. In many ways, the artist compares the cooing sounds of pigeons with the dulcet tunes of a flute, both melodious, both tranquil. His golden brides symbolize the idea “old is gold” and the white birds, as always show peace. In olden days, people used pigeons to communicate with each other, Amar uses them to convey and promote a peaceful coexistence of people and birds. Much like the mellow cooing of pigeon and enchanting sound of flute, Amar’s paintings are soft and serene.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe artist uses soft and short brush strokes to fill his subjects with details.

Mukherjee’s subjects wear vibrant and bright tones of red, orange, green, blue clothes and are usually some sort of performers, many times street performers. He believes that in one way or another, everyone is a performer, everyone puts an act for someone else. Through his body of work, which involves people in pairs or large groups, Mukherjee tries to emphasise how each individual is similar to another.
