K. Laxma Goud

Through the 1970s K Laxma Goud explored the technique of etching building on the visual language he had developed in the drawings and woodcuts he made in the 1960s.

 

Goud had studied  both printmaking and mural painting between 1963 and 1965 after his training in drawing and painting. Many of resulting works featured figures who through Goud’s use of etched line, visually blend into each other or into neighbouring figures, animails or the landscape. Born in 1940, Laxma Goud studied in Hyderabad. The Aicon will present works in paper by Goud with the provenance of the Herwitz Collection.
