Event Description : The colours, shapes and emotions have emerged from the very soul of the India and together they will converge at Lalit Kala Akademi this autumn. As a part of a group exhibition titled “PANORAMA”, over 15 All India Based Artists will bring to the viewers a varying range of interpretations of raging contemporary issues from October 4th to 10th, 2015 at the Lalit Kala Akademi, Ferozeshah Road, New Delhi.
·         Curated by Priyanka Banerjee, “PANORAMA”, literally meaning an unbroken view of a subject, celebrates the talents of the fresh and the new, and makes a compelling case for contemporary art in the city.Some of the participating artists include Lt Shree Manab Banerjee, Archana Das, MridulChakraborty, KashiNath Bose, Ganesh Panda, Rohini Jain, ShyamPorwal, Shipra Gupta, RinkuJha, Rashid Khan, Sadaf Khan, Meghna Agarwal, Kamal Nath, Saru Sharma, Kamaldeep Kaur, Swati Joshi Phatak, Dheeraj Modanwal, Sikha Negi, Naveen Negi, RajeevSemwal among others.
·         The exhibition delves into contemporary issues of social relevance, such as feminism, ethical treatment of animals, spiritual harmony and so on. Nature, for instance, is explored through mutually symbiotic relationship between the flora and fauna. Urbanization and industrialization have exploited the natural layer of our ecosystem, and its awareness becomes paramount to awaken our collective consciousness. As each artist touches upon subjects such as these that have paralyzed the society, their canvas becomes a window for us all to explore the possibilities. This one-of-its-kind event is funded by the artists entirely on their own.
·         Says curator Priyanka Banerjee, “Just the way a PANORAMA represents an entire worldview, this exhibition is a wholesome view of the thoughts of its many diverse yet like-minded artists. These artworks emote through vivid strokes – some are muted and some vibrant; together they create a surreal experience.”
·         Dabbling in a diverse range of mediums, from water colour, oils and pen and pencils to mixed media and sculpture, the artists bring to their canvas emotions that reverberate with social significance. Mridul Chakraborty depicts speed in the lives of human beings, while Meghna's paintings portray vultures both symbolically and in abstract forms. Kashi Nath uses a variety of mediums to express ideas like power and permanence, while Rohini Jain takes inputs from his surroundings, finding familiar elements across time and culture to create a new visual vocabulary and express the nuances of culture, folklore and history.

About the Curator: Priyanka Banerjee is known for her efforts to promote emerging artists, and in the same spirit, she presents yet another exhibition that highlights exciting talent from the city.
