ARTSACRE MUSEUM OF BENGAL MODERN ART– Pioneers
Gallery ‘Bengal Modern Art – Pioneers’ traces the evolution of Bengal Modern Art from its nascent days, beginning with works of Daniell brothers, Chorbagan Prints and Kalighat Pats to works of pioneering artists like Abanindranath Tagore, Gaganendranath Tagore, Nandalal Bose, Bhavesh Sanyal, Ramkinkar Baij, Hemendranath Mazumdar and Jamini Roy who developed their own vocabulary based on Indian ethos and gave Bengal Modern Art its own distinctive identity. Their ground breaking works inspired and encouraged the subsequent generation of artists to break free from all preconceived notions and to forge their own path.
