Sayed Haider Raza, “S H Raza” is one of the most respected Modernists of India and is celebrated for his range of styles and the uniqueness of his vision. His early forms reflect a mastery of abstraction and after years of travel, exploration, and experimentation, he returned to Indian visual idioms for inspiration in the late 1970s, culling from tantric imagery. SH Raza looked to forms as the bindu (seminal source of energy), beej (seed), and garbagraha (sanctum sanctorum or hallowed space) for inspiration. Furthermore, he ascribed color with symbolic meaning and transformed local visual traditions into universal yet deeply personal spiritual iconographies.) View Artist Collection

About Untitled (Temple Scene)
Raza’s work signalled the painter’s identity through associations with transcendence and tradition, offering an Indian interpretation of abstraction, a national modernism. The task of questioning such an approach towards synthesis would fall on the subsequent generation of artists. Raza’s work remained distant from their concern of challenging the exoticising expectations of an international art market.
