SUMMARY:Curious Charms  The Magic of Aquarelle
DESCRIPTION:Unique Creation and Arts Gallery presents the first solo exhibition of well-known radiologist Dr Sushma Mahajan in Delhi\, titled ‘Curious Charms ~ The Magic of Aquarelle’ from 1st to 4th April 2023 at the Visual Arts Gallery\, New Delhi. The exhibition\, curated by Dr Alka Pande\, attempts to view the beauty of flora and fauna through the creative imagination of the artist with a difference. \nA self-taught artist\, Dr Mahajan\, chose the more difficult medium of watercolours to depict her well-defined artistic expressions. The Curious Charms ~ The Magic of Aquarelle series captures a wide spectrum of her imagination through her eyes\, ranging from animals to birds to architecture to still-art. \nCurator Dr Alka Pande says\, “Dr Mahajan is a trained radiologist and\, through her passion as a painter\, looks at her environment through her own personal lens. She dives into the landscape and paints the most evocative landscapes where birds and mammals are placed in the human environment. She proves that you don’t have to be a trained artist to paint evocative pictures.” \nFlowers and animals have always been part of the natural habitat of the human environment. The artist has a unique way of viewing the artworks and immerses into the inner worlds of the animals she paints. She brings out the ferocious gaze of a big cat and the tender cuteness of a squirrel with the same ease. Her animals speak with her eloquently crafted eyes; this is something that sets her body of work apart and lends it a unique appeal. The beautiful bond that humans share with animals also inspires the artist’s brushwork. \nSays artist Dr Sushma Mahajan\, “Creativity takes courage. And it is all the more daunting when you are foraging in seemingly alien waters. Being a radiologist by profession\, my aspirations were very basic when I initially started to dabble in watercolours a few years ago. However\, it has evolved into an abiding passion now. Painting is a sort of catharsis for me. My art is vibrant and colourful\, it heals the soul from the hits of everyday life. All in all\, painting has become such a powerfully liberating force in my life.”

SUMMARY:Chitrakavya
DESCRIPTION:The Visual Art Gallery at India Habitat Centre in Lodhi Road\, New Delhi\, is proud to present CHITRAKAVYA\, an exhibition showcasing the 45 years of artistic journey of renowned artist Shri Gajendra Prashad Sahu. The exhibition will take place from April 6th to April 10th\, 2023\, and promises to be a celebration of the artist’s aesthetic experiments and his deep devotion to nature. \nThrough his unique blend of pen and ink\, watercolour\, and acrylic on canvas and paper\, Gajendra Prashad Sahu has portrayed nature in all its glory\, depicting the season of spring\, the season of love\, in its varied colours. His paintings show lovers enjoying the charm of romance under the exemplified Kadamb tree\, betrothed birds on the leafy branches\, and elephants exchanging lotus flowers with each other near a lotus pond. The artist’s attention to detail and his ability to capture the essence of nature in his paintings will undoubtedly delight visitors to the exhibition. \nGajendra Prashad Sahu is not just an artist. He has successfully performed his duties in various positions in life\, including a Faculty Member in the Department of Printmaking at B.K.

His versatility and ocean of talents are evident in his art practice\, making CHITRAKAVYA a must-see for art enthusiasts and nature lovers alike. \nThe exhibition promises to be a visual narration of splendid nature and its various forms\, showcasing the essentials of earth called Pancha Mahabhuta\, the five significant elements – Earth (Prithvi / Bhudevi)\, Water (Jala / Varun)\, Fire (Agni / Tejas)\, Wind (Vayu)\, Space (Akasha)\, and the belongings that alive amid them. Gajendra Prashad Sahu’s paintings portray an unequalled connection between theoretical thoughts and animalistic perception\, untitled by the cautious use of colour and ornamental design. \nThe great medieval Sanskrit poet Kalidas described in Ritusambhara portrays nature in many ways\, and Gajendra Prashad Sahu’s paintings evoke a similar sense of beauty and awe. The exhibition is not only a celebration of Gajendra Prashad Sahu’s artistic journey but also a call to action to protect and preserve nature for future generations.
