Rameshwar Broota Indian, b. 1941
61 x 57.1 cm
Broota's artwork boldly demonstrates his mastery of anatomical
studies, offering a psychologically complex portrayal of the human form. In
this piece, he continues his tradition of providing a poignant social
commentary by juxtaposing institutions of power against the vulnerable
individual. The black silhouette of a male body symbolizes the weariness of the
human spirit, while the canvas is marked by Broota's signature technique of
scraping, resulting in expressive scribbles and scratches that enrich the composition.
