Somenath Maity Art
Indian, b. 1960
Somenath Maity is a self-professed artist of urban environments and cultures. Called avant-garde and unconventional for his landscapes, his favourite occupation is to find the inner beauty that exists in every big city and that most people don’t see or bother to look for, and then express it in his abstract oils on canvas. Maity builds up his paintings, all aptly titled structures, one brush stroke at a time, almost as an architect would work on a blueprint for a building. Maity’s colors and textures are strong, bringing to the forefront the life of the urban sprawls that he paints, and investing them with a force that works beyond the life of their inhabitants, keeping them ticking no matter who comes or goes, lives or dies.

About the Artist & his work :
Born in 1960 at Midnapore in West Bengal, Somenath Maity studied Fine Arts at the College of
Visual Arts in Kolkatta under the guidance of the senior and eminent Bengali artist,
Shuvaprassana. After obtaining his degree here, Maity went on to receive a diploma in Fine
Arts from the Indian College of Arts and Draftsmanship, also in Kolkatta.
Somenath Maity is self-professedly an artist of urban environments and cultures. Called avantgarde
and unconventional for his landscapes, this artist’s favourite occupation is to find the
inner beauty that exists in every big city and that most people don’t see or bother to look for,
and then express it in his abstract oils on canvas. Maity builds up his paintings, all aptly titled
"structure", one brush stroke at a time, almost as an architect would work on a blueprint for a
building.
Maity’s colors and textures are strong, bringing to the forefront the life of the urban sprawls that
he paints, and investing them with a force that works beyond the life of their inhabitants,
keeping them ticking no matter who comes or goes, lives or dies.
Recognized today as one of Bengal's important new emerging painters, Maity has already
exhibited his works at many major Indian and European galleries. He has won awards and
scholarships from most of the major Indian fine art...
