PAINTER

Manoj Dutta

"There are, pronounced elements of folk art in my paintings though its content is my experience of the contemporary reality around me"

Folk form and feel come to my paintings as naturally as the tune of folk songs that spring from the depth of the folk-singer's heart. I try to achieve the same simplicity and directness in my work.

Manoj Dutta stands as a self-taught artist, delving into the rich tapestry of Indian folk art traditions within his creations. His artistic approach is direct and unembellished, a homage to the authenticity and spontaneity of folk artists. This quality reflects his admiration for their craft. Dutta's artistic finesse lies in his adept balance of depth, texture, and shading, all masterfully aligned with his thoughtful selection of colors. His expansive color palette and fluid strokes of line work serve as potent tools, enabling him to effectively convey specific moods and articulate emotions within his paintings.
