Meaning & Analysis

Indian View B is the second print Hodgkin produced when he returned from one of his trips in India. While Hodgkin is known for his reluctance to disclose the meaning of his works – preferring instead for the viewers to interpret his paintings however they preferred – we do know this print represents a fleeting view from a train. Enamoured of the rich colours and ancient culture of India after his first visit in 1964, Hodgkin returned to the country every year, travelling by train in between cities to appreciate in full the landscape. In Indian View B, the green and pink patches of colour may suggest a blossoming field filled with flowers, although the disposition of the green on the upper side of the square complicates such a straightforward analysis.

  • British artist Howard Hodgkin was a luminary of abstraction. Representing Britain at the 1984 Venice Biennale, winning the Turner Prize in 1985, and knighted in 1992, Hodgkin established a legacy by pushing the boundaries of convention. Indian culture and painting heavily influenced the artist's work, infiltrating it most obviously in his bold colour choices. Evoking the bliss of exotic travels and past memories, Hodgkin's abstract representations provide an intimate insight into his world. The vibrancy of his palette and expression of the brushstrokes distinguished the artist from his contemporaries, seeing him gain international recognition.
