Artist Biography :
Shahabuddin was born in 1950 at Dhaka, Bangladesh. Bangladesh’s War of Independence in 1971 has a considerable influence on his artworks. As a hero of the liberation, he inherits from that strength for his painting.
Graduate of Dhaka’s Academy of Fine Arts, Shahabuddin was granted a French scholarship to study at Paris’s Ecole des Beaux-Arts in 1974.
Exhibited in numerous national and international art fairs, he was among the « 50 Masters of Contemporary Art » at the Olympiad of the Arts in Barcelona, 1992. In 2000, he was awarded the Swadhinata Padak, Bangladesh’s most honorific civil distinction. In 2014, he received the Chevalier de l’Ordre des Arts et Lettres for his contribution of developing French culture on an international level.
Shahabuddin’s works are constructed around movement. The artist does not represent the human body but rather transcribes the elan and muscular force in compositions that focus on legs as magical locomotive instruments that traverse the world. For him, muscular legs, translating physical effort, are also a symbol of surpassing oneself. In his work, the body appears to have been captured in mid-flight—a veritable fusion between man and the space he is traversing.
