Rare K. Laxma Goud Batik. Indian Fine Art. Padma Shri. Early Mid Century Modern

About the Item

Super Rare Goud Work, K. LAXMA GOUD BATIK THREE GODDESSES EPIC & RARE EARLY "COMMERCIAL MID CENTURY" STYLE! CIRCA 1967 ! LARGE! Approx . 33" By 20" Here is a superb batik from the legendary Indian artist K. Laxma Goud! In 1963 K. Laxma Goud graduated from the Government College of Art & Architecture in Hyderabad, India. He continued his studies with mural painting and printmaking at M.S. University in Baroda, from 1963 to 1965. This work from around 1967 is the personification of his mural studies and the mid century style that was being taught! Completed several years after his studies in Baroda, it is one of the earliest and most magnificent Laxma Goud works on record to be offered. This piece foreshadows many of his later ribald works! Here, three goddesses are depicted on a wonderful hanging batik! The colors and shapes in this work are absolutely amazing and the work is simply delightful to gaze upon! This style is pure mid century modern and was used heavily in expressionist illustration art! Goud's solo art shows include a show of bronzes and terracotta at the Guild Art Gallery in Mumbai (2006); Gallery Arts India in New York (2003); Grey Art Gallery in New York (2001-02). He also participated in the São Paulo Biennale in 1977. Now, over half a century after its creation, this batik is a treasure for collectors and the holy grail for collectors of Laxma Goud! Tapestry is extremely well preserved & in fine vintage condition! This would look sublime hanging in your NY Penthouse, or CA Atomic Ranch! A SIMPLY MARVELOUS GOUD FOR YOUR SOUTH ASIAN ART COLLECTION .
