|  The 
                          new artistic canon was also epitomized by Nandalal 
                          Bose (1882-1966), another artist of the Bengal 
                          School. He was the first Indian artist to react meaningfully 
                          to the various linguistic facets of the Indian Art tradition. 
                          He had a great breadth of sensibility and technical 
                          range. He made special efforts to establish contact 
                          between Indian artisans and artists. He pioneered experiments 
                          in modern Indian sculpture, fresco and graphics.
