Ambadas Khobragade

Ambadas was born in 1922 at Akola in Maharashtra. His works are essentially a window to the worldview of his soul. He was part of a generation of artists that was swayed by the many social, political and cultural churnings of the 1950s and 60s, and got attracted towards following abstract and non-representational art. The artist believed in getting beyond the surface, corresponding into a formless, abstract reality, where his intentions played no part in his works. His works are in many collections including the National Gallery of Modern Art, New Delhi; Glenbarra Art Museum, Japan; the Ben & Abbey Grey Foundation, USA; and the State Gallery, Norway.
