Chittrovanu Mazumdar Biography

Chittrovanu Mazumdar is one of the most popular and richest Artist who was born on October 13, 1956 in Paris, Île-de-France, France.

Chittrovanu Mazumdar (born 13 October 1956) is a contemporary Indian artist of Bengali-Indian and French descent. Mazumdar has been described as a “conceptual artist” and a “post-structuralist” while some critics consider it difficult to classify his oeuvre into a single artistic tradition or even into any consistent genre of his own. Mazudmar has referred to himself as an “expressionist painter” but has also said he generally prefers not to use “a particular word to qualify” his work because it comprises different kinds of media and forms, and that art is more interesting when fully given over to the viewer’s own experience rather than constrained by the prescriptive power of labels.

Until he was about 12 years old, when he attended the Patha Bhavan School in Kolkata, Mazumdar was sent to a village school held in a little bamboo hut because his “father thought it would be good for [him]”. He later studied art at the Calcutta Government College of Art & Craft, graduating at the top of his class in 1981. Prior to attending art college, he was taught by his father, whom he also cites as a significant creative influence.
