Yusuf Arakkal More Art

1945-2016

Yusuf Arakkal was born in Kerala. Both his parents died when he was young. Leaving the comforts of his house behind, he left for Bangalore, lonely but with a passion to become a painter. The hardships that he faced at Bangalore honed the artist in him and sharpened his sensibility. Arakkal took a diploma in painting from Karnataka Chitrakala Parishat (KCP), Bangalore and later specialized in graphic print making from National Academy community studios, Garhi, Delhi. Arakkal has had solo and group international shows. Arakkal received “Karnataka Lalit Kala Academy Award” in 1979 and 1981, “The Shiromani Kala Puruskar” from the Government of India in 1983, Special award of the Third Asian Art Biennale, Dhaka, Bangladesh in 1986, “Karnataka Lalit Kala Academy honor” in 1989 and “Lorenzo-De-Medici Gold medal” at Florence Internazionale Biennale, in Florence, Italy for his work Bacon’s Man with the Child and Priest in 2005.
