전기:

K. P. Krishnakumar was an Indian sculptor and painter born in Kuttippuram, Kerala, India in 1958. He attended Visva-Bharati University. Krishnakumar helped to lead the Indian Radical Painters' and Sculptors' Association, which ceased to exist following his death. He committed suicide on 26 December 1989. His oeuvre includes a number of figures of young men, which Jhaveri suggests are self-portraits. Wyma argues that his Vasco da Gama (1985) explores themes of colonialism. He was influenced by Pablo Picasso, Auguste Rodin, and director Jean-Luc Godard. Krishnakumar was exhibited at the Kochi-Muziris Biennale in 2013.
