- Summary
- This book is the only comprehensive survey of Zainul Abedin's work to date. Zainul Abedin (1914-1976), reverently called the Shilpacharya or guru of art, is the architect of the modern art movement in Bangladesh. This groundbreaking book showcases Abedin's work over a period of forty years, with more than two hundred color and black-and-white plates illustrating his special relationship with his country. Retracing his personal vision through various artistic, social, and political perspectives, this book shows how Abedin forged the way for an entire generation of Bangladeshi contemporary artists.
