Francis Newton Souza, whose works figure among the most expensive Indian contemporary paintings, was born on the 12th of April 1924 in Saligao, Goa. He was a founding member of the Progressive Artists' Group of Bombay. Souza is one of the most prolific, prominent, and controversial modernists of South Asian art. Souza’s imageries reveled in the grotesque and oscillated between the themes of death, agony, and eroticism. The tormented portraits of Souza unraveled the underlying repression of the human subject. Their struggles to overcome societal regulations, traditional taboos, and religious restrictions, were always externally revealed through the scar-like features on their face. In the post-independent Indian cultural landscape, Souza’s faces dwelled as specters that will haunt us forever, constantly reminding us about the individual pulled down in the vortex of conventions.
Souza's style exhibited both decadence and primitivism. His unrestrained and graphic style creates thought provoking and powerful images. His subjects ranged from still life, landscape and nude to Christian themes such as the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ. Souza’s paintings rejected convention and the banality of everyday life, and many of them explored erotic subjects. Souza’s works have reflected the influence of various schools of art: the folk art of his native Goa, the full-blooded paintings of the Renaissance, the religious fervor of the Catholic Church, the landscapes of the 18th and 19th century Europe and the path-breaking paintings of the moderns. In his drawings, he uses line with economy, while still managing to capture fine detail in his forms; or he uses a profusion of crosshatched strokes that make up the overall structure of his subject.
In 1959, a collection of his autobiographical essays,‘ Words and Lines’, was published, and in 1962 a monograph on his work by Edwin Mullins was published as well. Two retrospectives of his work were organized by Art Heritage, New Delhi, in 1986 and 1996.Souza also participated in a work-live programme in Los Angeles in 2001.Souza passed away in 2002.Some important posthumous exhibition of his work includes, ‘F.N. Souza’ in New York, in 2008;‘F.N. Souza: Religion & Erotica’ at Tate Britain, London,in 2005-06;‘Self-Portrait:Renaissance to Contemporary’ at a gallery, in London, in 2005;and ‘Francis Newton Souza’in galleries in New York and London, in 2005.
Academics
He started his education from St.Xavier’s college but was expelled for his graffiti drawings all over the restroom. Later he joined the Sir J.J.School of Art in Bombay.
