Krishna Reddy
Krishna Reddy is a printmaker and sculptor born in the Andhra Pradesh region of India. After earning an arts degree at Visva-Bharati University in West Bengal in 1946, he travelled to Europe to further his art education. At the time of his participation in the International Sculpture Symposium in Montréal, he was assistant director of the renowned Atelier 17 in Paris, where he developed the printing technique that enabled him to become one of the best intaglio printmakers in the world.
Reddy’s sculpture practice, less well known, retains the equivocal relationship between abstraction and reality that he expresses in his prints, as evidenced in the work produced at the International Sculpture Symposium in St. Margarethen, Austria (1962).
