Tagore India Centre, India House, London

London, United Kingdom

The Tagore India Centre, India House, London, was the venue for Six Indian Painters, Gajanan D. Bhagwat, Balraj K. Khanna, Yashwant Mali, S. V. Rama Rao, Lancelot Ribeiro, and Ibrahim Wagh, London, 9 - 28 November 1964. In 1963, a number of recently arrived artists from India came together to form the Indian Painters Collective. This was however, a relatively short-lived venture. One of the ventures of the Indian Painters Collective was this exhibition, Six Indian Painters.

The exhibition catalogue was introduced as follows,

“The artists exhibited here are also the founder members of “The Indian Painters Collective”. The group consists of Indian artists living and working in London. It has been formed with the intention of holding frequent exhibitions under their own auspices and also to participate in other exhibitions here and on the continent. Their work represents a cross section of Indian painting today. The young and talented members of this group have won a good deal of acclaim in India and some are also known abroad.”
