A Solo Art Exhibition
Syed Thajudeen Shaik Abu Talib was born in 1943 in Alagan Kulam, a village not too far from the temple city of Madurai, South India, where his Malaysianborn parents lived during the Second World War. He joined his family in Penang when he was 11 years old but later went back to India to pursue courses in art at the Government College of Arts and Crafts, Madras (1968-74). Without doubt, Syed’s unique style and aesthetic sense draw inspiration from his personal Indian background and Indian traditional painting styles. Syed’s studies at Government College of Arts and Crafts, Madras also informed and influenced his sense of aesthetics.
