<p><b>Somnath Hore</b> (1921-2006) was an Indian sculptor and printmaker. His sketches, sculptures and prints were a reaction to major historical crises and events of 20th century <a href="/wiki/Bengal" title="Bengal">Bengal</a>, such as the <a href="/wiki/Bengal_Famine_of_1943" class="mw-redirect" title="Bengal Famine of 1943">Bengal Famine of 1943</a> and the <a href="/wiki/Tebhaga_movement" title="Tebhaga movement">Tebhaga movement</a>.

He lost his father early and was schooled with the help of his uncle. In his youth he became affiliated with the Communist Party, and his socialist ideologies influenced the early phases of his artistic career. It was through the active patronage of the Communist Party of India that Hore gained entrance to the Government Art College in Calcutta. <a href="/wiki/Haren_Das" title="Haren Das">Haren Das</a> was then presiding over the graphics department, and Hore had the advantage of learning from him.<sup id="cite_ref-arunghose_2-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-arunghose-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In 1943 he did visual documentation and reporting of the Bengal famine for the Communist Party magazine <i>Jannayuddha (People's War)</i>. His coming of age as an artist coincided with the 1946 peasant unrest in Bengal known as the <a href="/wiki/Tebhaga_movement" title="Tebhaga movement">Tebhaga movement</a>.

By the 1950s he was regarded as the premier printmaker in India.

He was a witness of the human drama but a witness with a skill that translated his witnessing into art. In an age when secularism, socialism and peace can be seen- or rubbished- as shibboleths, he knew them to be vital needs. In times when art can become a play-thing of drawing rooms and auction halls, he kept it close to its springs-his human sensibility." </p><p>While the reputed art historian <a href="/wiki/R._Siva_Kumar" title="R. Siva Kumar">R. Siva Kumar</a> in the essay entitled Somnath Hore : A Reclusive Socialist and a Modernist Artist wrote, "We do not choose suffering, and we do not choose heroism. But suffering often compels us to be heroic. Somnath Hore (1921–2006) was an artist who led a quiet and heroic life. Quiet because he always kept himself away from the glare of the art world; and heroic because he chose to stand by the suffering and held steadfast to his political and thematic commitments even though he knew this meant trading a lonely path. He kept himself away from the din of art not because art was a lesser passion for him but because life mattered more and art did not stand witness to human suffering, did not mean much to him. And human suffering was for him, as a Communist, not an existential predicament, into which we are all born (or a visitation or even a tool to know god as it was for Van Gogh), but something always socially engendered." In the same essay <a href="/wiki/R._Siva_Kumar" title="R. Siva Kumar">R. Siva Kumar</a> writes, "The famine and the sharecropper's revolt acquired an archetypal significance in Somnath Hore's vision of reality. During these years there were a host of other tragic visitations: the communal riots, the Partition, the exodus of the religious minorities and the loss of home for millions, including Somnath. But none of them found a place in his work comparable to that of the famine and the peasant revolt, which were for him symbols of human condition and aspirations of those with whom he identified.”<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Style">Style</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Somnath_Hore&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Style"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In the early 1950s Hore's drawings and his <i>Tebhaga</i> series of <a href="/wiki/Woodcut" title="Woodcut">woodcuts</a> show the influence of Chinese <a href="/wiki/Socialist_Realism" class="mw-redirect" title="Socialist Realism">Socialist Realism</a> and <a href="/wiki/German_Expressionism" class="mw-redirect" title="German Expressionism">German Expressionism</a>. He was also influenced in his youth by the robust style of German printmaker <a href="/wiki/K%C3%A4the_Kollwitz" title="Käthe Kollwitz">Käthe Kollwitz</a> and Austrian Expressionist <a href="/wiki/Oskar_Kokoschka" title="Oskar Kokoschka">Oskar Kokoschka</a>. As the artist evolved, his drawings, especially his human figures, became simplified and shed details. Through this reduction he achieved his individual style of contorted and suffering figures created with a masterly use of line. His sculptures show a similar approach.
