Gulgee
Painter
Pakistan
|
Born in Pakistan
Qualified engineer in USA and self-taught abstract painter
Before 1959, he has painted the entire Afghan Royal Family.
His paintings are were bright and full of color, but the paint is put on with greater sensitivity and paintings vibrate with intense feeling. Areas sing with luminous thin color, thick blobs of paint pulsate with fiber-glass tears, the brush swirls strong and free. The total effect is very gray, yet considered and well thought out. They work enormously well, because it is all orchestrated with great care and concentration.
Paintings are often commissioned, or go abroad and therefore only reach relatively small audience.
He has had exhibitions in Afghanistan and Pakistan.
