Tarun Chakraborty , an artist from Calcutta graduated and later post graduated in Arts . He completed his M.A. in Economics . Later he realised his inbuilt capability of putting colourful imaginative thoughts on paper . He graduated in fine arts from Indian College of Arts , Calcutta in 1982 . Since then he has not seen back in his life . His paintings are liked by all the types of people as they have so many colours in it .

Tarun presents us moments of confrontation , that of a self reviewing and itself from all four quarters , or else such self is seen to be observing the ways of the urban soul as though in a solitaire with it's own being . His are inscapes , though of the freely imaging child's fiction , concocting fascinating , charming fictions as cause surprise
