Drawn from real life experiences, Shahid Kabir’s subjects are depicted in mild impasto and a painterly fluidity that is both evocative and sensuous. The overall look is faded and unembellished, evoking a sense of pathos. His empathetic stance and powerful insight have established him as a leading painter and printmaker in Bangladesh. Early in his career he received acclaim for his Lalon and Baul series. After graduating from the Government Art Institute in Dhaka, Kabir taught there until 1980. He then moved to Spain, where he spent a significant part of his career. The formative years spent in Europe added a fuller dimension to his earlier practice. And as he came back home, he did so with gusto introducing a simple idiom that thrives on depiction, or rather, on creating an impression of every-day reality and objects. Notable among his awards are the Carmen Aroshamduzamena Prize, Madrid (1984). Kabir divides his time between Dhaka and Madrid. |
