Fragrance of Abstraction by Madan Meena

The Water lilies painted by Madan Meena seem like a floating mat of foliage crowned with resplendent blooms that open every morning, then close for the afternoon …....
Madan’s direct observation and perceptual study of water lilies near his hometown , has led to these amazingly stylized & semi abstracted series of paintings.These water colors executed with clever fluidity of his energetic strokes on paper ,feature these fragrant water lilies on stagnant water , emerging from almost-abstract compositions of broad strokes of bright color and intricately built-up textures. His varied compositions in the show particularly depict the effects of light and shadow on color, recording how the appearance changes as the light shifts .



This Lotus series is part of Madan's early work between the years 1998 and 2000. Bundi's Jaitsagar has always been his source of inspiration and he has used it's pond in his works time and again.


As Manet once said "There are no lines in nature, only areas of colour, only one against the other." This work has it all, from the tenderness of his early years which are full of wondrous inspirations to the eagerness of exploring his artistic manoeuvres. The playfulness recreated by Madan in his own artistic translation has given a new definition to the Lotus pond of Jaitsagar , Bundi. 

Presenting the Lotus pond in an impressionistic manner & then moving towards its abstraction, one can marvel at Madan's flexibility, both of his tonal power & that of drawing , playing with a very broad spectrum of colors at the same time. From early morning misty hues to midnight imagery of Lotus pond in mysterious blues to exotic reds at evening , he has presented a broad pallette in this series.


Selective 30 artworks by Madan Meena are on display at Gallery Artchill, Amber Fort, Jaipur . INDIA.
Special 4 artworks by Dr. Madan Meena from his miniature inspired series will also be on view.


Daily 8 am- 6 pm, From 27th Aug - 2nd Sep 2016 including Sundays

Juneja Art Gallery (Estd 1994) under the banner of Gallery Artchill had created special art corridors in the west wing of this famous heritage monument in 2008.

Juneja Art Gallery since 1994 , and Gallery Artchill since 2008 are primarily responsible for introducing the concept of Contemporary Art in Rajasthan & creating art awareness.

I keep opportunities for future activities open & take our aim to another level : exposure &assimilation of art with increased interactions with artists of the worldand to strengthen Indian Art positions internationally; to understand the undercurrents flowing in each country ( read society) which reflects & is transmitted through the work of their artists. Somewhere we may learn from each other & may make this a better World  !!!
