In February 1959 a Rockefeller fellowship took him to New York City, where he would remain until 1964, the year this "UntitledÁ mixed-media was painted. Samant spent 1965–68 in Mumbai. During that time, his work was still shown in New York, where he was still represented by World House Galleries. The association with World House continued privately after the gallery closed in the late 1960s.
