Iranna GR was born in 1970, and has painted professionally for 10 years…

The Dancer on the Horse is a meditation on the life and work of the artist. Ranjit Hoskote emphasises the spirituality of the artist’s work and the importance of his Guru.

The Dancer on the Horse: Reflections on the Art of Iranna GR, Ranjit Hoskote, Mapin Publishing/Lund Humphries, 2007, p. 128, price not stated. With 180 colour illustrations. Contemporary Indian Artists Series.
