About the Artist
Born in 1942 in Burugupalli, Andhra Pradesh, T. Vaikuntam completed a diploma in Painting at the College of Fine Arts and Architecture, Hyderabad, in 1970 and in 1972 he completed another diploma in Painting and Printmaking from the Faculty of Fine Arts at Maharaja Sayajirao University, Baroda.
With luminous colors and sinuous lines, veteran artist Tohta Vaikuntam has always depicted the lives of the people of his birthplace, capturing the rural life and its intrinsic vibrancy particularly the lives of the womenfolk. Men and women, ornate with traditional jewelry and heavy make-up, crowd his works. The artist's childhood fascination with the traveling theater, the actors, and the kind of garish make-up they applied to sink in the character they played, later inspired him to develop his distinct artistic style. His fascination with the primary colors turns his canvases into a cascade of illuminating hues.
The artist has won many awards, including the National Award for art direction in the movie Daasi in the late 1980s and the National Award for painting in 1993.
