Press Releases

"Krisan's work though contemporary, reflects the tradition of his home state of Rajasthan, the warmth of whose yellows, ochre's, browns, reds,  and orange is clearly visible as are the colourful clothes they wear in some of his works.  What distinguishes his studies of women is their bearing and presence, something that feudal society never allowed beyond the ominous hand print of the sati. His woman are not victims of fate, they are the makers of future. and he has a capacity to place complex concepts in a visual language that is to understand and obscure. that is what gives his work's the appeal they have today among a wide section of connoisseurs at home and in countries as far apart as Japan and the USA".
