Default The Rickshwa Arts Of BD


The cycle ricksha was introduced to East Bengal (now Bangladesh) around the end of World War II, when the area was still part of the British Indian Raj.

Ricksha art began to proliferate in the 1950s, when this part of Bengal was East Pakistan. Ricksha art employs multiple themes, materials, and intentions; it is a hybrid of folk art and commercial designs, combined with ideas from the individual artist's imagination.


The back and front of an elaborately decorated ricksha.

Ricksha art, like the movie banners and advertising posters from which it derives, is a popular medium that reflects the heart's desires of ordinary men and, as one ricksha maker told that, indeed, enjoyed by ordinary people. Unlike members of the gentry, who may want to hide their wealth and good fortune, the ordinary man in Bangladesh is not averse to expressing his dreams in public, whether he is a creator or consumer of ricksha art.
