Coming from an artistic family background Hebbar pursued art and formally studied at the [[J. J. School of Art]] (Sir Jamsetjee Jeejebhoy School of Art) in [[Mumbai]] between 1940 and 1945.<ref>[http://oxfordindex.oup.com/view/10.1093/benz/9780199773787.article.B00085050?rskey=Did29m&result=1 Benezit Dictionary of Artists]</ref> Later he studied art at the [[Académie Julian]] in [[Paris]]. He was corresponding Member of the [[Academy of Arts, Berlin]] between 1975 and 1993.<br />
<br />
==Career==<br />
<br />
Hebbar's early artworks were called his ''Kerala'' phase because of his depiction of the landscapes of the regions of [[Malabar (Northern Kerala)|Malabar]] and [[Tulu Nadu]]. Later he experimented with other themes. Hebbar drew inspiration from myriad sources including the writings of art historian [[Ananda Coomaraswamy]], Jain manuscripts, Rajput and Mughal miniatures, the paintings at the [[Ajanta Caves]], and the art of [[Amrita Sher-Gil]]. He also studied at the Academie Julian in Paris, where he developed his appreciation for European modernism.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Singh |first1=Kishore |title=India Modern: Narratives from 20th Century Indian Art |date=2015 |publisher=Delhi Art Gallery |location=New York City}}</ref> He first won international audiences at the '''Art Now In India''' exhibitions in 1965 which were held in [[London]] and [[Brussels]]. Hebbar participated in various international art exhibitions like the [[Venice Biennale]], [[São Paulo Art Biennial]] and Tokyo Biennale. Today, his artworks are considered highly influential in Indian Art History.<br />
