About The Event

Mani Da: A Centenary Exhibition of KG Subramanyan,” conceptualised by K.S. Radhakrishnan.

KG Subramanyan, widely known as Mani Da, has been an eminent artist, art teacher, designer, writer, and philosopher of art. He is someone whose perspectives on art and life carry resonances of an early engagement with the nationalist movement in which Gandhi and Rabindranath loomed large. His works have a flat, edgy style, with bold lines that contain a formalism merged with fine craft and folk art to erase any kind of hierarchy or privileging of a particular style.

Mani Da’s versatility comes partly from the diverse materials he works with as a painter, muralist, printmaker, relief-sculptor, and designer, and partly from the flexibility and layered richness of his visual language.
