Press Release
Aicon Contemporary is proud to present Biren De: Pre-Tantric Works from the Herwitz Collection. Biren De (1926-2011) was a painter and educator, best known for his Tantric paintings. He was born in present day Bangladesh, and moved to Kolkata to attend the Government College of Art. In the early years after India’s independence he moved to Delhi, the capital of the new nation. There he executed large scale public art commissions, while he also taught at the College of Art, Delhi. During his time as a professor, he came to New York on a Fulbright Scholarship in the late fifties or early sixties. It was in New York that his work started to move in direction of Tantra which would eventually go on to define him.
