n. krishna reddy (1925-2018) was an Indian master printmaker, sculptor, and teacher whose innovative approach to intaglio printing – particularly his pioneering use of viscosity printing – revolutionized the field and influenced generations of artists. His vibrant, intricate abstract compositions stand as a testament to his artistic vision and technical skill.
Born on July 15, 1925, in Nandurbar, Chittoor district, India, Krishna Reddy’s early exposure to art came through the rich cultural landscape of his homeland. He began his formal artistic training at Visva-Bharati University's Kala Bhavana (Institute of Fine Arts) from 1941 to 1946, studying under the guidance of the renowned artist Nandalal Bose. This foundational period instilled in him a deep appreciation for traditional Indian art forms and principles.
Following his graduation, Reddy served as the head of the art section at Kalakshetra Foundation from 1947 to 1949 and also taught art at the Montessori Teachers' Training Centre in Madras. During this time, he explored both sculpture and painting alongside printmaking. A pivotal moment came in 1949 when he moved to London to study with Henry Moore at the Slade School of Fine Arts, University of London. This exposure broadened his artistic horizons and introduced him to modern sculptural practices.
His journey continued to Paris, where he encountered the influential sculptor Constantin Brâncuși. Brâncuși’s encouragement extended beyond technical instruction; he facilitated Reddy's integration into Parisian art circles, introducing him to numerous prominent artists and fostering stimulating intellectual discussions. He further honed his sculptural skills under Ossip Zadkine.
Reddy’s artistic style evolved towards colorful, intricate abstractions. However, it was his experimentation with printmaking techniques that truly set him apart. He became a master of intaglio printing and is best known for developing and perfecting viscosity printing – a technique involving the use of multiple colors and varying ink consistencies on a single plate to create richly textured and layered images. This innovative approach allowed him to achieve painterly effects within the printmaking medium, blurring the boundaries between the two disciplines.
N. Krishna Reddy’s contribution to modern art lies in his ability to synthesize Eastern artistic traditions with Western techniques and philosophies. He challenged conventional notions of printmaking, elevating it from a reproductive medium to a powerful form of original expression. His work continues to inspire artists today, solidifying his place as an iconic figure in the history of 20th-century art. He passed away on August 22, 2018, at the age of 93, leaving behind a rich and enduring artistic legacy.
