Haren Das exhibition 'Idyllic Nature' begins

Bengal Gallery of Fine Arts is showing a nine-day exhibition featuring the works of celebrated Indian printmaker Haren Das (1921-93) and his son Chandan Das.
The exhibition begins on October 14 at the Bengal Gallery in Dhanmondi, Dhaka.
Born in 1921 in Dinajpur - a small town in undivided Bengal, now in Bangladesh, Haren Das took a diploma in Fine Art from the Government College of Arts and Crafts, Kolkata. He was a highly acclaimed artist who worked almost exclusively in printmaking mediums -- engraving, linocut, etching and lithograph. His works highlight scenic beauty of villages and rural life in Bengal.
