Nasreen Mohamedi
Nasreen Mohamedi (1937—1990) was an Indian artist best known for her line-based drawings, and today considered one of the most essential modern artists from India. Despite being relatively unknown outside of her native India during her lifetime, Mohamedi's work has been the subject of remarkable revitalisation in international critical and popular acclaim over the last decade. Her work has been exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York, the Kiran Nadar Museum of Art in New Delhi, documenta in Kassel, Germany, and at Talwar Gallery, which organised the first solo exhibition of her work outside of India in 2003, and which has represented her estate for over a decade, in New York and in New Delhi. Today, Mohamedi is considered one of the major figures of the art of the twentieth century.
== Life and career ==
Born in 1937 in Karachi, India, in what became western Pakistan some ten years after her birth, Mohamedi lived, even from her early years, a cosmopolitan life.〔Jonathan Griffin, "Nasreen Mohamedi," ''frieze'' 127, November–December 2009.〕 Her family moved to Mumbai in 1944, and later Mohamedi attended St. Martin's School of the Arts, in London, from 1954 to 1957.〔Anders Kreuger, "Making the Maximum Out of the Minimum," ''Afterall'', Summer 2009.〕 After living briefly with her family in Bahrain, Mohamedi studied on a scholarship in Paris from 1961 to 1963, and when she returned to India, she joined the Bhulabhai Institute for the Arts in Mumbai, where she met other artists working at the time, including V.S. Gaitonde, M.F. Husain and Tyeb Mehta.〔Susette Min, "Fugitive Time: Nasreen Mohamedi’s Drawings and Photographs,” ''Lines among Lines'', Drawing Papers 52, New York: The Drawing Center, 2005.〕〔Klauss Kertess, "A Detached Joy: The Drawings of Nasreen Mohamedi," ''Art on Paper'' 13.5, May/June 2009.〕〔Talwar Gallery, "Nasreen Mohamedi: Biography,” http://talwargallery.com/nasreen-bio/.〕 She settled in Baroda in 1972, where she taught Fine Art at Majaraja Sayajirao University, and would continue teaching until her death in 1990. She also travelled abroad extensively, spending time in Kuwait, Bahrain, Japan, United States, Turkey, and Iran over the course of her life.〔〔Holland Cotter, "Nasreen Mohamedi: The grid, unplugged,” ''The New York Times'', October 31, 2008.〕〔Zehra Jumbahoy, “The line of control,” ''Mint'', February 2, 2013.〕 Travel provided an essential source of inspiration for Mohamedi, who photographed and kept diaries throughout her life; not only was she influenced by the deserts, Islamic architecture, and Zen aesthetics that she was exposed to during her travels, but, as Susette Min notes, “Mohamedi was deeply and intensely aware, as indicated in her photographs and journal entries, of her self and her body moving in time.”〔 During the last decade of her life, Mohamedi’s motor functions gradually deteriorated as she was challenged with a rare neurological disorder similar to Parkinson's disease; she was able, however, to retain control of her drawing hand, and to continue to create the precise, meticulous work she became known for, until her death at age 53.〔Geeta Kapur, "Elegy for an Unclaimed Beloved: Nasreen Mohamedi (1937–1990)," ''The grid, unplugged'', New York: Talwar Gallery, 2005.〕
