Event Description : 
EXHIBITION "Shades of Tributes" solo painting show by artist Ram Dongre.

The exhibition draws inspiration from the Bhopal Gas Tragedy faced by the people of  Madhya Pradesh way back in the 80’s. Many of us may have forgotten the suffering and  pain faced by the residents of Bhopal but for many, it is a living reality. Some of us may  not have been born when the Union Carbide Tragedy struck our fellow beings but the  reminances of the fatal tragedy can still be seen in the eyes of the survivors, their  families and friends.    

Bhopal Gas Tragedy was the world’s worst industrial disaster which took place on the  night of 2-3 December 1984 at the Union Carbide India Limited (UCIL) pesticide plant in  Bhopal. Over 50,000 people were exposed to the methyl isocyanate gas leak. The leak  led to the death of 3,787 persons and 5,58,125 people were injured.       

Through the exhibition, Ram remembers the people who lost their lives and pays a  humble tribute to the brave survivors and salute their families in facing the catastrophe.    

People who visit the exhibition must look out for the 40 feet painting depicting the  suffering, pain and grief on the inhabitants.    

It is a must watch for those who have some memory of the Gas Tragedy as it reminds us of the suffering an industrial leak can bring about and how we all should work towards saving the lives of our future generation.    

Ram hails from Kalapipal in Malwa region of Madhya Pradesh. He has been pursuing  his passion for painting for the past 25 years. Holding the brush and bringing the  charters to life was taught to him by his father. He draws his inspiration from nature and  enjoys solitude in the rural setting and loves to paint characters from the mythology.  Many of his paintings have figures of Gods and Goddesses. Numerous exhibitions of  his work have been organized in Delhi, Mumbai and Bhopal. His work has been highly  appreciated for the human angle brought out through the paintings. He is an acclaimed  artist of repute and has been awarded Lalit kala Akademi National award in the year  2010.    

If you are lucky, you may get to meet the artist in person and understand from him the  nuances of the paintings exhibited. Students are encouraged to visit the exhibition.   

I am sure the art lovers and curators would be interested in taking back some of these  artworks. The paintings which are on sale will be marked and details pertaining to it can  be checked at Display Counter.
