About Me

A.V.Ilango: An artist and a sculptor, A.V. Ilango made his debut in 1973 on completing his Masters in Mathematics at the Bangalore University. Inspired by his childhood memories, he set off with a colourful palette. From seven to sixteen years, he had spent his childhood in Gobichettipalayam, a market town in the hinterland of Tamil Nadu,where everyday life is orchestrated with agricultural activities, trade and also religious celebrations. Thus the harvest, fairs and festivals resound with folk songs, music and dances. The artist vividly recalls those scenes on his canvas. In 1979, moving to Madras in the pursuit of his artistic career, he found this big city hardly inspiring. The last decade saw his palette mellow.The decorative elements disappeared. Minimalist compositions were etched in the sublime harmony of black and white, positive and negative spaces, space and form.Some works have caught the dramatic moment of an action whereas in others, forms merge into the space. The artist opines that his way of conceptualizing, as a mathematician, has contributed a lot to his artistic research.
