Anjani Reddy, Artist Studio

Anjani Reddy's paintings symbolize the spirit of a woman, her strength of mind and her fecundity. If there is another definite theme you will find in her work, it is a sense of nostalgia.

The vigor of the paintings lies in the colors used. "Anjani Reddy stands firmly on a very satiated sense of womanhood. Celebrating her memories in vivid colours, her canvas becomes a lyrical picture oscillating between realism and make believe," says Atiya Amjad, an art critic.

Associate Professor and Head of the Department of Painting at the JNTU College Of Fine Arts, Anjani Reddy has had her paintings displayed in galleries around the world, from Shantiniketan to Apparao Gallery in India, and from group showings in New York and London to several parts of South-East Asia. Her paintings can cost anywhere upward of Rs. 5,000, and you will need an appointment to meet her at the studio.

One of the city's well-known artists, Anjani Reddy's work will provide an interesting texture to your art collection.
