Beginning July, Pradarshak is showcasing varied genres of paintings by student artists. Coming from different backgrounds, different schools of art from in and around Mumbai, these young students are the artists of tomorrow.
The gallery selects from a large portfolio of each of the student's works and hosts the best of the lot. The exhibition that has begun from 6th July will continue till the 27th of Aug 2011. It is phased for the art lovers' convenience -
18th July – 30th July’11: Phase II – Abstracts & Drawings
1st Aug – 12th Aug’11: Phase III – Semi-abstract Paintings
16th Aug – 27th Aug.’11: Phase IV – Landscapes, Citiscapes & Seascapes
"Vidyarthi Vishesh" - as the student special is called, is now in its sixteenth consecutive year. Participating are around 70 students from leading colleges of art in Mumbai, Pune, Nagpur, Nasik, Dhule, Jalgaon, Aurangabad & Sangli.
Vidyarthi Vishesh is an exhibition that highlights diverse styles, techniques and mediums and is truly affordable. The artists traverse through a gamut of personal experiences, general observations and the diabolic imprint of the social scenario. The bouquets and the brickbats carve the psyche of the individual artist as he/she banks on the creative expression of his brush to delve deeper into his impressionist as well as expressionist self and at times, into surrealist forays.
The Concept: Based on an interactive principle, the student exhibition extends over a period of 8 weeks and has been phased out to convenience the art enthusiast. It features creative and thought-provoking realistic and semi-realistic paintings apart from a host of Graphic Prints, Drawings, Still Life, Seascapes, Cityscapes, Landscapes, Compositions, as well as Experimental work.
The body of work is expansive and selected from the Elementary, Intermediate, Advanced, Diploma and Degree classes. This gives the students a chance to observe in a mixed sphere, relate to techniques and applications and learn from each other; it also initiates them into the art of presentation and pricing.
The prices range from a minimum of Rs.1500 to a maximum of Rs. 12000/- thus making original art from the ‘artists of tomorrow’ accessible and affordable.
