Motivated by the current atmosphere & events for NRI's in the pink city , On the spur of the moment I have taken out certain special and EXOTIC canvasses from my Permanent Collection and  holding a group show of 3 noted painters- these special works reflect the Indian-ness in our millieu , 

 

SUBRATA GANGOPADHYAY-  works from his mother n child series & eco friendship....Gangopadhyay’s paintings are like  celebrations of  a great human survival. He is enchanted by female forms amid natural surroundings. He feels that sometimes a very calm looking woman could be hiding smoldering fire within of high magnitude, or could be hiding several layers of secrets.The uncommon vibrancy and stimulance of his colorful strokes, the passionate imagery of men or women are ageless and ethereal: that of a superior painter’s creative latitude so incessantly prolific which never appears a cliché or a repetitive chore. Living in current times Subrata recoils from the increasing materialism in our society as it is replete with disguise & beauty-masks .

ANAND PANCHAL-   works from his Bhrahmin boys & girls reflecting their religious purity & innocent beauty hence... The innocent and flawless adolescents in the works by Anand Panchal enchant by their exquisite grace, they are an indispensable part of the temple periphery. Born in the family of the ‘pandits’ and the temple care takers, such children imbibe into themselves the elements of the holy surroundings and adapt to them completely. There is an essence of careless beauty and spiritual strength that makes these young girls and boys glow as if illuminated from a source of light concealed deep inside them. He attends to his little angels with affinity, love and thoughtfulness, allowing each of them to glisten in angelic radiance like fresh dew drops on tender leaves. The inclusion of forms such as paper boats, cows, floral clusters and musical instruments add to the metaphorical and allegorical aspects of the works.

DIPIKA HAZRA- works from her Krishna series as well as the ethnic village bellies immersed in lap of nature.... Dipika Hazra lays bare the heart-warming simplicity of Rajasthan, the open attitudes of its humanity rooted in the attributes of her land. Dipika’s palette is diversified and vivid. Her choice of reds, yellows and blacks betokens the love of blazing colors with which the people of Rajasthan make up for the vast and drab attributes of their land. The artist depicts remarkable states of serenity & a striking evidence of great strength and skill in organising forms and colors and creating the effect of enchantment and fantasy. The simplicity and spontaneity with which she handles mundane themes is itself a visual treat. She creates a spell binding impact. Untainted by bumptious modernism, Dipika’s works present a lyrical vision of nature.
