Oil on Masonite board

At the start of his career, in the mid-1950s, Avinash Chandra gained early recognition, joining Delhi Silpi Chakra to showcase his oil paintings. These were works that were handled with a joyful abandon, allowing Chandra to create his own formula and technique in colour, line, and form. Many of these works, though recognisable as landscapes, seemed to grow out of the earth like futuristic buildings, geometrically patterned, abstract looking forms that created inquisitiveness in the mind of the viewer.
