Shahabuddin Ahmed | Untitled | Acrylic on Canvas | 15.6 x 23.6 inches | 2016 ( Unframed & Delivered )
This painting by Shahabuddin Ahmed, created in 2016, is a powerful example of his signature style that blends abstraction with dynamic figuration. Rendered in acrylic on canvas, the composition captures a sense of raw energy and motion, where the blurred strokes create the impression of a figure surging forward with immense force. The human form, though fragmented and distorted, emerges with a muscular intensity, embodying resilience, struggle, and an unyielding spirit. The muted tones of grey, green, and beige contrast with striking hints of red, emphasizing both vitality and tension within the scene. The background dissolves into hazy strokes, suggesting an infinite space against which the figure battles or charges ahead, reinforcing the artist’s recurring themes of human perseverance, freedom, and the indomitable will. It is not just a portrait of a body in motion, but a symbolic representation of the ceaseless drive of humanity against the vast, undefined forces of life.
Born in 1950 Shahabuddin Ahmed studied at the Academy of Fine arts, he later moved to Paris. He has shown his works extensively across the globe. In 1992 he is one of 50 Master Painters of Contemporary Arts, an award bestowed on him at the Olympiad of the Arts Barcelona.
The primary concern of his paintings is to reflect the contemporary life and times. He is an optimist and this is clearly expressed in his paintings. This optimism was firmly embedded in Shahabuddin when he has a youth was involved in the Liberation struggle for Bangladesh and had to face the various facets of life.
He has the capability to overcome the constraints of time and space. In their dynamism his paintings depict fearless human figures that cut through the difficulties of life, which provide one the reason to live. The vibrancy and force of his brushwork highlight this aspect. Above all his compositions are unmistakably musical and rhythmic. Shahabuddin`s figures seem to be enthralled in the cosmic dance at times merging with the ethereal forces.
His works are displayed in many galleries across the globe including the Museum Olympic Laussane, Switzerland and Bourn-En Brasse Museum France.
