Early life

Jibeswar Baruah was born in 1906 in Amolapatti Sibsagar. He was raised in lower-middle-class family.

From an early age, Baruah was more interested in drawing and painting than becoming a student of art.

Career

He was appointed as the drawing teacher at Panbazaar Girls H. E. School, Guwahati. He started an art school within the school. He struggled to make it a fully-fledged art school, given the lack of organized state effort to support such activities.

Subsequently, Baruah started a photographic business. In 1947, Baruah reopened the Art school in a single room in Don Bosco School at Paanbazar.[1]

In 1948, his art school began to receive a recurring grant of Rs. 50.00 per month from the State Government. In 1959, the school's grant was increased to Rs. 300.00 which it shared with Lalit Kala Academy in Lakhtokia. Baruah was the sectretary of the state Lalit Kala Academy. Art classes were continued in two of the first floor's three rooms.[1]

After Baruah's demise Lalit Kala Academy separated from the school of art and moved to Santipur into a rented house ghag became known as Government College of Arts and Crafts Assam. The Government College of Art and Crafts was there until 2005. Later it was moved to its own land and building in Basistha.[1]

In 1958, it held its first National exhibition in Delhi. Lalit Kala Academy organized another exhibition at Guwahati, headed by Baruah. The exhibition took place at Ambari cottage emporium. In 1962, Lalit Kala Academy organized another exhibition at Shilong, headed by Baruah as the school secretary. In that exhibition Bhabesh Chandra Sanyal exhibied. Sanyal was then sectary of Delhi Lalit Kala Academi.
