About S H Raza

Born on 22nd February 1922

S H Raza's art is fundamentally a celebration of nature whether it appeared in his early expressionist watercolour landscapes from the 1940s, the Cubist compositions from his stay in Paris, or his later abstract works distinguished by the fusion of geometric forms with spiritual concepts. His themes frequently drew inspiration from his early years spent playing in the forests of his native village in Madhya Pradesh. The artistic development of Raza over the course of over eight decades reveals the life of an artist and person who consistently pushed the limits of modern art as well as his own.

Sayed Haider Raza, a renowned 20th-century painter born in 1922 in Madhya Pradesh, India, found inspiration in his childhood memories of the dense forests and vibrant village life. As a founding member of the Progressive Artists Group, he embraced modern Indian art rooted in cultural heritage. Moving to France in 1950, he studied at École Nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts, eventually settling in Paris. Raza's art, characterized by primary colors and abstract forms, explored cosmological concepts and geometric patterns.

His accolades included the Prix de la critique, Padma Shri, Lalit Kala Akademi Fellowship, Padma Bhushan, Padma Vibhushan, and Commandeur de la Legion d'honneur. Raza established the Raza Foundation to promote Indian art and culture, supporting emerging artists and organizing exhibitions. Despite his wife's passing, he continued painting passionately until he died in 2016. The Centre Pompidou hosted a retrospective exhibition of Raza's works, titled "Raza: The Fullness of Abstraction," showcasing his renowned pieces alongside photographs and documents, marking a significant showcase of his life's work in France.
