CATALOGUE NOTES
Prabhakar Barwe was known as a symbolic abstractionist, but did not conform to the mainstream notions of modernism and abstractionism. This vivid mixed media on canvas titled 'Whispering Green' was painted by Barwe in 1974. Barwe used match sticks to create uniform designs against a smooth green colour creating a striking resemblance to a collage.
