Event Description : 
Art Konsult presents “Myths of Metropolis” A solo show by Kalicharan Gupta.

The exhibition " Myths Of Metropolis" ,brings to light the angst of living in a clustered inhabitation and shortage of breathing space , as the eminent artist ,Kalicharan Gupta deeply observes the disparate conceptions of metropolis . As a metropolitan way of life, urbanity encompasses cultural practices such as buildings, artifacts, and products as well as social lifestyles, values, norms and symbolic meanings. The gradual increase in the population of the people living in urban areas led to sudden change in the societal patterns.

His series of works titled in ‘Myths of Metropolis’ represents abstractions that reflect a microcosm of experiences and points of view of life in a metropolis ,that emphasize the powerful effectiveness of the visual as a tool for contemporary discourse. It is the overview of life in a metropolis that is truly uncanny given the stillness and inanimate quality of Kalicharan’s subjects even as he unravels moorings in an urban jungle. An element of precision runs through all his geometric-cum-organic forms, and these are genuinely exciting for any viewer who appreciates the subtlety of visual nuances.


His series, make us think of how human beings have been recording their own existence and experiences, since the creation of the cave paintings. Embellished through ritual and passed on through generations, myths and tales have formed beliefs and offered escape from the mundane. The vehicle of story enhances empathy and creates catharsis while giving the viewer, the opportunity to suspend disbelief through the medium of visual narrative.
