Syed Haider Raza, born on 22 February 1922 in Mandla, Madhya Pradesh, was one of India’s most seminal modernists. A student of Sir J. J. School of Art, Bombay (1943–47), he was a founding member of the Progressive Artists’ Group. In 1950, he moved to Paris on a French government scholarship, and in 1956 became the first non-French artist to win the Prix de la critique. Raza largely excluded the human figure, preferring landscapes that evolved into gestural expressionism and finally geometric abstraction. His work drew on childhood memories of the Narmada and dense forests, and the bindu—a black dot his teacher drew to aid concentration—transmuting into tantric geometric explorations. Honoured with the Padma Shri, Padma Bhushan, and Lalit Kala Ratna, Raza returned to New Delhi in 2010 and passed away on 23 July 2016.
