Raj Chowdhury

As a young teenager pursuing his hobby, Raj's works expressed realism and reflection of daily life. Gradually, he felt drawn towards surrealism and abstract realism due to influences from nature, emotions and mood. Deeply inspired by the intellectual stalwarts like Rabindranath Tagore, MF Hussain, Pablo Picasso, Van Gogh, Ganesh Pyne ,Satyajit Ray etc. , his recent works depict Romanticism in different forms depending on the subject matter. His paintings are the reflections of dreams and thoughts which are narrated as poems. It speaks for love, peace, nature, women empowerment. It also stands against war, hatred, gender discrimination and pollution.
Overall the artworks depict the culture, heritage and beauty of Bengal and India with its uniqueness and unification with global culture and heritage.
He had worked alongwith 'Oneness Through Art', a multicultural unit of Aurodhan Centre, Pondicherry under renowned Art Connoisseur and former president of Alliance Française de Pondicherry, Mr. Lalit Verma and also associated with the Cultural Exchange Program under the Institute of Spanish Studies, Kolkata.
