This book is a celebration of the most intriguing and innovative
artwork of a national icon, who crossed the traditional and
predefined boundaries of artistic forms, norms, subjects, objects,
shades, dimensions, and every other confinement that he deemed as
an obstruction. He did not work under some preordained plan, but
rather allowed his instincts guide him freely toward the peaks of
perfection. Compliance was not in his genes. The book documents the
period Sadequain lived In paris during the 1960s and produced some
the most explosive pieces of work, which have never been cataloged
in the past.
Sadequain's paintings, based on the poetry of Ghalib, Iqbal and
Faiz represent a confluence of the most extraordinary talent of the
art and Urdu literature. The extraordinary collection of 53
illustrative paintings and two murals by Sadequain included in this
book, based on the visions of the greatest poets of the Urdu
language, Ghalib, Iqbal, and Faiz reminds us that, renouncing the
seduction and eschewing the allurement of material entrapments can
help levitate mankind to an exalted state.
The book is a collection of Sadequain's calligraphic masterpieces.
It contains over 160 images of stunning calligraphies, that helped
set the vogue of calligraphic art. In addition the book contains
insightful information on Sadequain's life and work.
