So the incredible rise of Rahid Rana is neither unusual nor unexpected, because throughput his career as a visual artist Rana has been engaged with the ideas that are relevant to our realities. From his earlier phase of seemingly abstract canvases mainly constructed with grids, to his later paintings based upon film imagery, he has been mining several issues simultaneously. Formal, conceptual, social and political ideas are invoked through his work, yet his initial training as a painter - of great sensitivity - has ensured the poetic and lyrical aspect of his pictorial expression.
