Ismail Gulgee

High IQ Polymath Lettering Scholar

Short Description

Calligraphy is a tradition of extraordinary brains in visual arts, a practice where alphabets become the center of romanticism. Gulgee was an icon of this rule. This Peshawar born maestro went to the prestigious Aligarh University acing civil engineering followed by Columbia and Harvard universities, and it was there while pursuing further studies in engineering that he started painting and calligraphy to rise as a genius of gestural abstraction with sweeping layers of oil paints while making references to the Islamic design and elements.
