Description:

Untitled, 1974 by Vasudeo S. Gaitonde is one of the most celebrated abstract paintings in modern Indian art. Created during the mature phase of his career, this work embodies Gaitonde’s meditative, non-objective style marked by textured layers, luminous surfaces, and spiritual minimalism. The painting reflects his deep interest in Zen philosophy and Indian metaphysics, presenting a quiet yet powerful visual field that invites introspection.

This masterpiece broke records when it sold for INR 42 crore (~$7 million) at a Christie’s auction, making it the most expensive Indian painting ever sold. Its significance lies not just in its value but in how it represents Gaitonde’s unique language of silence, space, and inner light—a monumental contribution to both Indian and global abstract art.

Artist:

Vasudeo S. Gaitonde (1924–2001) was a pioneering figure in modern Indian art, best known for his serene and contemplative abstract paintings. Though often associated with abstraction, Gaitonde preferred the term “non-objective”, reflecting his belief that true art transcends form and narrative. Deeply influenced by Zen Buddhism, calligraphy, and ancient Indian philosophy, his works are meditative explorations of light, texture, and space.

Gaitonde’s process was slow and intuitive—he worked meticulously with palette knives and rollers to create layered, luminous surfaces that appear to float in silence. His art invites the viewer into a space of stillness and introspection, away from the noise of modern life. Recognized as one of India’s greatest abstract artists, Gaitonde’s paintings have set record-breaking auction prices, symbolizing both spiritual depth and global acclaim.
