He launched a book ‘Paniker’ that was compiled by Mr. Paniker’s son S. Nandagopal comprising his paintings, at Artworld Sarala’s Art Centre. Mr. Fabig said the legendary artist who founded the Cholamandel Artists Village had managed to transcend the presumed limitations of Indian artists. Mr. Paniker had astonishing energy and integrity that made him do things without expecting success. He noted Mr. Paniker’s assessment of his work ‘Why do I paint?’ gave an interesting psychological insight about himself. The exhibition of prints on canvas will be on till February 10 at the art centre.
