Krishna Reddy (1925–2018) was an Indian-born printmaker, sculptor and educator whose innovations transformed modern printmaking. Born in Andhra Pradesh, India, he studied at Visva-Bharati University in Santiniketan before pursuing sculpture at London's Slade School of Fine Art and working with Henry Moore, Ossip Zadkine and Marino Marini. He later moved to Paris, where he joined Stanley William Hayter's influential Atelier 17, eventually becoming its co-director. There, he helped develop viscosity printing, a revolutionary intaglio technique that allows multiple colors to be printed simultaneously from a single plate. His abstract compositions, inspired by natural forms and organic processes, combine intricate textures with luminous, layered colors. After moving to New York in 1976, Reddy taught printmaking at New York University and established the Color Print Atelier. Awarded India's Padma Shri in 1972, he exhibited internationally, including at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. His work is held in major collections, including the Museum of Modern Art and Tate, London.
