About Artist
Gurucharan Singh (b 1949) Born in 1949, the award-winning Gurucharan Singh's work often reflects the plight of the underprivileged, the social underclass, the invisible, the exploited. His paintbrush holds up a light to dark and torrid lives that desperately cling onto the fringes of society. In his work, prostitutes, the poor and the dejected all take on a renewed vigor, sometimes in explosive unapologetic hues of blues and reds, other times in more sedate (but no less powerful) tones, always creating a vivid alternate reality. His work succeeds in expressing a variety of sentiments that are very poignant indeedArtwork
