Raza abandoned the expressionistic landscape for a geometric abstraction and the 'Bindu'.Raza perceives the Bindu as the center of creation and existence progressing towards forms and color as well as energy, sound, space and time.
His work on BINDU (dot) is animatedly interpreted in the world of modern art and is justifiably compared to CUBISM of Picasso. Modern art is always interpretative. Raza was specifically interpretative because he gave a distinct touch to his canvasses. In art and paintings, preferences are often subjective and seldom objective. But perceptive art critics place him far above his contemporaries M F Hussain and even Vasudeo Gaitonde, though the latter was a genius. He along with Akbar Padamsee, Tyeb Mehta and Francis Newton Souza revolutionized the Indian modern art scenario.
