Event Description : The Creativists is a group exhibition of paintings, sculptures and a culmination of the works by veteran and contemporary artists. The best works reflect a vision of where the artist may go in the future. This knowledge of the past, the capacity to carry it into the future and originality of approach, eventually decides the future like the artist has lovingly gifted each work with. That is what a collector looks for in a show. An effort has been made to showcase quality works of Masters & aspiring talent. The paintings reflect the signature style of the artist which as seen is always his/her forte.


Artist Shobha Broota's work is soaked in a spiritual and meditative vision reverberating with rhythms in oscillating patterns. Her seemingly simple and minimal work invites the eye and blocks the perception to contemplate the form and its loosening unto the void. Hailed for its philosophical depth, the work commands concentration on one’s part to comprehend and appreciate it fully. Her creativity entails using various mediums including cloth, wool and iron mesh among others and the experimental quality of her work takes it beyond the plane of mere abstraction. She works on canvas, paper and board with equal elan to make balanced and tranquil compositions in variable textures and palette.

Where Broota holds her share of spirituality in her art works, artist Sanjay Bhattachaya had openly admitted that he had been influenced by the works of Rembrandt and Dali. As in his style, one can see light and shade techniques at play trying to create a surrealistic imagery. Sanjay’s main themes are about city life in general in which inanimate objects figure more prominently. Sanjay Bhattacharya has painted in oil, water, color & acrylic and has done sketches in recent past. Sanjay Bhattacharya, like most artists from Bengal is known more for water colours and oil works. His initial paintings drew heavily on the style of Bikash Bhattacharya but in later days Sanjay tried works in the style of other great artists of Bengal like Ganesh Pyne . In course of time Sanjay amalgamated various styles and developed on his own.

With a display of urban life in a stylized manner, the works of Kalicharan Gupta’s imagery is complex and demands exploration. This exploration is both visual as well as architectural (structural, that is). There is of course color, subtle, tonal and compositional variations, moving towards making an impressive statement.Gupta’s works engage you both in contrast and harmony. Painted in a semi abstract style, his works invite you to view and weigh the impact of his unique style. 

Participating Artists : Niren Sen Gupta, Kalicharan Gupta, Shobha Broota, Jagdish Chander, Jagadish Dey, Sanjay Bhattacharya, Apte (Sculptor), Jiten Hazarika
