Event Description : "Artists are like beads strung together in a thread, borders disintegrate….nationalities become irrelevant ,there is an unspoken bond between them" with this ideology in mind Art Beyond Borders present a group show  Titled- Integrated Art ‘India …..Bangladesh” with 20 Eminent contemporary artists participating from Indian and Bangladesh.

Art Beyond Borders is a voyage in India for fostering an interactive residency programme for artists from SAARC nations.A six day workshop held in Lucknow last year produced these magnificent master pieces being show cased at the gallery.

Senior Artists like Jatin Das, R B Bhaskaran, Dhiraj choudhary , Anandmoy Banerji, Swapan Das, Brinda Miller along with Rafiqune Nabi, Sheikh Afzal,Kanak Champa Chakma, Jamal Ahmed from Bangladesh to name the few.

There are more than 46 works in the show, all these works were created during the residency in Lucknow hence the influence of culture, monuments and chickankari seem evident in the works.
Art Beyond Borders held their first artists residency in the historical city of Lucknow from Oct 26-31 2014. “We hope to fill the void left behind by sub continental politicking and diplomacy ….allowing ART to speak” says Sandhya Singh Parmar executive Director Art Beyond Borders, “we aspire to bring all the eight SAARC nations on the same platform with art and cultural exchange.”

All artists worked across a multiplicity of mediums and mechanism , to bring their own unique perspective .It’s between charcoal and paint, nature and feminism,realism and abstraction, that there was an alchemy.

Sudip Roy’s Charulata a strong female character out of Tagore’s book, Babla Seth’s sculptures with recycled iron and nut bolts stands out among colours and charcoal, Sheikh Afzal’s fascinated with city street children’s bliss couldn’t help painting them in a Canvas.
R B Bhaskaran one of the most respected and talented artist to participate in the Madras movement of the 1960’s work on life cycle, Jatin Das focuses mainly on man-woman relationships. Dhiraj Choudhary’s restless line speaks volume both in his painting as well the drawings.

Moniruzzaman’s Ganga Jamuni showcased the old unspoken Tahjeeb of lucknow which city has hence been proud of. Rafiqun Nabi's “Family” portrail of under section of the society with his straight lines speaks volumes on his mastery of brushes and colours. Kanak Champa’s tribal girl’s face half lit and half darkened looks at your face, Maddona by Rokeya, her expressions in colours make women issues dynamic. Gomati by Swapan Das awakens the effects of global warming and state of River Gomati.

It’s an amazing effort of Art Beyond Borders to put together such brilliance of these brilliant artists from India and Bangladesh,they truly represent the ideology of promoting creativity and diffusion of culture and and the art, potentiating the interaction between local initiatives and international artists.
