Human Figure PaintingBacon, Freud, Mehta, Souza - figure of the man in the shadow of World War II and the partition of India

muscle Emerging India in the arena of world trade is becoming more widely recognized and respected. It is said that the economy of art and feed each other. The years of sluggish economic growth also reflects the difficult times for artists Indian economy. There were artists with the most beautiful expressions who fought to keep their bodies, but then they do not their soul, their craft through attrition. To the long list of artists who have fought their struggle for physical survival of people like MF Hussain and Nikhil Biswas should be placed in the foreground. Although Hussain painted panels to invoke his muse cinema art, Nikhil Biswas used old newspapers to paint on. The folklore of the struggle of Indian artists is long, varied and full of verve and courage. We should, as a nation is grateful to the dips of these courageous artists obsessed that we now have a vibrant heritage of Indian art is increasingly popular not only in India but worldwide.
While India has struggled against the yoke of British imperialism throughout the Second World War intervened in Europe to adopt an unknown and unimaginable human catastrophe in the history of mankind. Nazi troops burned and destroyed life, housing and culture that goes back to human history. The concentration camps throughout Europe systematically decimated men, women and children in gas chambers diabolical. Franz Kafka encamped demented sick mind of the Nazi war machine in his short novel, In the Penal Colony. A visit I made to a concentration camp Auschwitz, the most feared left me nightmares for several months. The art and literature of Europe was changed forever as a result of the war. From diary of Anne Frank, the autobiography of Polish pianist Wladyslaw Szpilman (filmed by Roman Polanski) a new interpretation and representation of man would be tried in literature, film and art.
A new man's situation was out of the creative imagination of artists. Pain, bending, humanity traumatized as in Henry Moore's drawings of people in underground shelters and the despair of hope as in the play No Exit (Huis Clos) by Jean-Paul Sartre or fever, an allegory of man's innate violence by Albert Camus. Picasso's Guernica will resonate Kafkasque a world of futility and absurdity. The Impact of War will devastate the sensibilities of artists. Satish Gujral spending time in Mexico under Diego Rivera likes to paint another disaster, the partition of India.

destruction of death and suffering of War helped to create a hidden, distorted human figure as never before. Picasso has played a role in the decimation of the king accepted principles of drawing the human form. Cubist Picasso in his treatise rendered human form as an assembly of a mechanical device, devoid of the internal dynamics of being.
In this socio-historical context of war and the time thereafter that I find the works of four artists, Bacon, Freud, Souza and Tayeb. Francis Bacon, the first of these artists with his mouth open grotesque figures, at times equivocate between man and animals (recall of Gregor Samsa, the man transformed into a giant spider in The Metamorphosis by Kafka) disrupts our kernel internally. It is consistent with the angst that the Norwegian artist Edvard Munch's The Scream in its response to him. Bacon studied pictures of mouth diseases and has created paintings with gaping mouth distorted. Although Lucien Freud is to be the son of the great small-Sigmund Freud, but in Bacon's works as some psychologists apply psychological interpretations and suggest that its open mouth are suggestive of anxiety vaginal falling into a hole bottomless black and mysterious as a homosexual he instilled fear and apprehension in him. Whatever the source of its MOU open.
