Chitramayee - State Gallery of Fine Arts is organising an exhibition of paintings, drawings and graphics by Ashok Agrawala, Bholekar Srihari, D L Jain and Dr. Monis Khan, from 18th to 25th November. Presented by Gallery State Management, the exhibition will see the sale proceeds donated to an orphanage.
Ashok Agrawala's works are mostly abstract - strokes of ink applied on paper to form figures expressing various emotions, with titles such as Sensitive Movements, Bold Expression and Intensive Emotions.
Bholekar Srihari is a well-known artist and printmaker. He works mostly in etching media. His works are figurative with the mystic element in the prints. He has done his diploma in painting and drawing from Sir J J School of Art, Mumbai. A senior artist born in 1941, Bholekar also specialises in sculpture, in addition to printmaking and painting.
D L Jain is known for his drawings and paintings on Nature, depicting Nature in all its vivid splendor. His colour pencil works have won the hearts of many art lovers. Inspired by veteran artist D G Dongre, he studied at the Ideal Fine Arts Institute, Gulbarga.
The paintings of Dr. Monis Khan depict a wide range of emotions, comprising different shades of the fairer sex - from the days of mythology to the present dawn of women empowerment and social evils such as sati, female foeticide and rape. Born in Hyderabad, this self-taught artist graduated from the St. Petersburg State Medical Academy, Russia.
All the four artists work for Gallery State Management, Hyderabad. The prices of their paintings are affordable and pocket-friendly to the common man, thus providing good quality art at reasonable prices. Gallery State Management is working the service-oriented way, keeping needy orphans and the common man in mind. It extends its commitment to the community in supporting orphans by organising exhibitions and donating part of the proceeds.
