"It was the middle of winter. And I had reached the city late at night. The dimly lit lanes were deserted and gave an impression of a ghostly deserted city...It looked like a haunted place and still remains the same… Every sight was like a new composition, a still life artistically organised to be interpreted in colours....they were vibrant with an inner life of their own, very deep and profound, which left an everlasting impression on my artistic sensibility." In the winter of 1960, the Indian artist Ram Kumar visited the holy city of Varanasi (or Benares). The trip marked a significant moment in his artistic career whereby he abandoned the human figure in favour of abstracted cityscapes. Here, Kumar has applied cubism to the architectural forms of Varanasi, and despite the throngs of people that fill its streets and ghats, the scene is entirely devoid of human presence. Sotheby's exhibition of Modern and Contemporary South Asian art is open today in London ahead of tomorrow's sale.
