Biography:
Velu Viswanadhan (born in 1940 in India) has lived and worked in Paris since 1968.
A member of the Viswakarma caste—which includes traditional architects, painters, and sculptors—he was introduced by his father at a very young age to the art of carving idols, and assisted him in creating floor diagrams—composed of natural pigments—such as mandalas and other representations of Hindu or Tantric rituals.

In 1965, he graduated from the Government College of Arts and Crafts in Madras. After receiving an art education focused on Western art, Viswanadhan took a much more personal direction and chose to reclaim his Indian roots by returning to the simple gestures and geometric motifs he had observed in his childhood,

His body of work, spanning nearly sixty years, offers a profound reflection on the relationship between form, space, light, and color. It has been acquired by major collections such as, in France, the Musée National d’Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris, the Centre Pompidou (Paris), etc.
