DESCRIPTION
Prabhakar Kolte was born in 1946 and received his diploma from the Sir J.J. School of Art Mumbai in 1968. Kolte’s early works bear the strong influence of Swiss artist and teacher Paul Klee - whose childlike figures conceal the sophistication of his textured surfaces. His early canvases display a distinct feature - a dominant single-colour background that serves as a backdrop for lighter and more intricate forms that encompass geometric and organic elements
