A Purist's Journey
Safiuddin Ahmed has just celebrated his 86th birthday and conceded for the first time in his homeland, to have a solo exhibition. It is merely a glimpse of what this remarkable artist has accomplished, perfecting the modern techniques of art while remaining true to his sensibilities and roots. Shunning publicity, abhorring self-promotion and refusing to see art as a product, the artist has tenaciously guarded his principles while creating a spectacular treasury of work.
