MINT : A MODERNIST TOUCH

Bhunath Mukherjee’s portraits have not been seen very often in the mainstream art space. And now 10 of those, made between the 1940s-50s, are being showcased at Art Exposure, Kolkata in the show titled A Modernist Lineage of Bengali Portraiture. You can see subtle shifts in Mukherjee’s style in the portraits painted between 1944-52, before he enrolled at the Royal Academy in London, and those done in 1956.
