Pond Near the Field

A poetic evocation of the landscape of Kerala, “Pond Near the Field” showcases drawings, prints, collages, sculptures and diaries of five artists who were the alumni of College of Fine Arts, Trivandrum: K. P. Krishnakumar, N. N. Rimzon, Surendran Nair, K. M. Madhusudhanan and C. K. Rajan.
The five artists were among the first few batches of this new art college formed in 1975, which was first of its kind in the state. The formation of Kerala Radical Painters’ and Sculptors’ Association until its dissolution with the tragic death of Krishnakumar in 1989 forms the backdrop and undercurrent of the exhibition.
