Details: The iconic modern Indian painter Sayed Haider Raza returned to India from France to spend the last five-and-a-half years of his life and artistic career in his homeland. A childhood glimpse of the Mahatma remained etched in Raza's mind, sparking an abiding interest with Gandhian ideals, and inspiring a set of paintings, in 2013, as a tribute to Gandhi. This volume is an attempt to put together these works in both artistic and historical perspective. Raza almost musically, certainly rhythmically, creates a Gandhi saptak through this set of works exploring the conceptual universe which the Mahatma created. With 7 paintings and 11 photographs, this volume binds together two extraordinary men, both artists in their ways, bound by an internal and external quest for peace. Published in association with Akar Prakar Gallery and the Raza Foundation.
