Indian Summer presents a group of skilful and expressive figurative paintings in oil on canvas and linen by India-born, London-based artist Raghav Babbar (b. 1997), first shown at Nahmad Projects in 2023. Indian Summer presents a group of skillful and expressive figurative paintings in oil on canvas and linen by artist Raghav Babbar (b. 1997) that include intimate portraits as well as large-scale group compositions. Babbar's sitters span friends from his childhood in Rohtak, a city north-west of Delhi, pan-sellers, dancers from the south of India, family members, as well as himself. Indian Summer is the first publication on Babbar, which features reproductions of over forty works created from 2020-23 and views of his 2023 exhibitions at Nahmad Projects, London, and Bevilacqua La Masa, Venice. Lock Kresler, Senior Director at Helly Nahmad Gallery, London, introduces the book, explaining his first encounters with Babbar and his practice. An essay by art historian, broadcaster and commentator Dr Cleo Roberts-Komireddi examines how Babbar uses his materials, treats his subjects and delves into his sources of inspiration, classic Hindi and Tamil cinema and the School of London artists. Babbar celebrates the individual as he showcases the diversity of his country in his textural, rich and joyful portraits that teem with life.
