JournalThe Poet (Head of Rabindranath Tagore) by Ramkinkar Baij$1.00Ramkinkar Baij is rightfully described as India’s first modernist sculptor for his pathbreaking use of cement and laterite as material, his choice of subjects and scale in public art projects, and his unconventional development of ideas.
