Moments…a solo photo-art exhibition by Kabeer Ramesh at the Jehangir Art Gallery

Photo artist Kabeer Ramesh comes with one more solo exhibition of his photographs at the prestigious Jehangir Art Gallery. His previous exhibitions were 'Frozen in Times', (Jehangir, 2023); 'Every Picture has a Story' (Niyta Art Gallery); and 'Enduring Imprints' (Nehru Centre). The ‘Moments’, as he titles the present exhibition, captures his creative moments, depicting a variety of subjects drawn from broad experiences resulting from travels to European museums, landscapes and other locations. This attempt at memorializing the monumental achievements of humanity, inscribed in stone, depicts human resolve in achieving the unachievable: the London Bridge and the skyscrapers, among others; at the same time, the melancholy and enigma of bondage and yearning for freedom are present in his photos of statues. Thus, Kabeer’s photo art offers sensitive explorations into the complex human condition: a deep yearning for freedom and unavoidable bondage.  

Some of his works are presented in the black and white scheme: the Taj Mahal, the London Bridge, the dilapidated urban habitat, and the harsh conditions of life. This offers both an archaic presence and its fleeting, fading passage.  Kabeer is fascinated with the many shades and moods of the sky. The sky at different times of the day and night presents multiple possibilities; even the darkness, that is the absence, offers glimpses of potential.   Portraits in Kabeer’s work of people from everyday walks of life present many orientations to the given:  some present deep anguish, while others show contentment even amidst the uncertain. Kabeer’s work offers many ways of seeing and visualizing.

Realms of Peace – IV : The Meditative Art of Bhaskar Singha

The world of art is often seen as a sanctuary—an alternate realm where beauty, thought, and emotion converge. Few artists embody this idea more completely than Bhaskar Singha, whose upcoming solo exhibition, "Realms of Peace – IV," promises to be both a visual and spiritual journey.

 

The exhibition will be inaugurated on Tuesday, 15th April 2025 at 6:30 PM, at the Jehangir Art Gallery, Gallery No.1, Kala Ghoda, Mumbai. It will remain open to visitors daily from 11:00 AM to 7:00 PM till 21st April 2025.

 

The event will be graced by distinguished guests, including Mr. Sudipto Sen, noted film director of The Kerala Story and Bastar; Mr. Mohan Thombre, retired IAS officer; Mrs. Sujata Bali of Miran Production,  Mr. Rakesh Gupta, Director of Routes 2 Roots NGO; and Mr. Sujit Das, Executive Vice President - Creative, Turmeriq.

Artist: Bhaskar Singha

 

Bhaskar Singha is not merely a painter—he is a seeker, a chronicler of life’s simplicity, and a spiritual explorer. Over the last 28 years, he has developed a unique visual language, initially through watercolour, and later through acrylic on canvas. His early watercolours are noted for their distinct layering technique—ten to twelve translucent washes that often resemble stencil work or the wax resist textures of batik.

 

As his journey progressed, so did his themes. Singha often chooses issue-based subjects—child labour, devotion, psychology, Sanatan philosophy—transforming them into meditative reflections on canvas. His deep connection with the Ramakrishna Mission infused his art with a stronger spiritual dimension, and the influence of Sanatan Sanskriti became increasingly central to his work.

 

Singha’s artworks are rich in symbolism and atmosphere. One can sense the cool breeze on a beach, the rustling of leaves, or the searing heat of a summer day—each natural element crafted with emotional nuance. In works like 'Youth,'he portrays the fire and competitive spirit of young people across genders, highlighting the evolving roles of women in society. In another series, inspired by the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan, he created pieces such as 'Run for Clean India,' capturing the ripple effect of one individual’s actions in inspiring community change.

“How to Disappear Completely” Solo Show of Paintings by artist Amit Gautam in Jehangir Art Galler

Amit Gautam - Contemporary Master Painter, a distinguished visual artist, is celebrated for his exceptional command over the watercolor medium—a form both fluid and elusive, requiring a rare finesse. A postgraduate from National Institute of Design, Amit brings a unique take on contemporary art.

His works have been showcased across prominent galleries both in India and internationally, including the Fall Brook Art Centre, Middletown Arts Centre, Mooresevevilla Arts Centre, Pryor Art Gallery, and the Michelson Museum of Art in the United States.

 

Amit Gautam - Contemporary Master Painter

Watercolor, by its very nature, demands both patience and precision. To coax such a mercurial medium into form is an art in itself—and in Gautam’s work, viewers are treated to a masterclass in this delicate balance. His portraits, the highlight of this exhibition, are imbued with quiet intensity and a profound sensitivity to human expression. Faces in his paintings do not merely exist—they speak, they reveal, they evoke.

 

Gautam’s fascination with the human condition—particularly the nuances of the face—forms the emotional core of his artistic journey. The human figure has remained a consistent theme in his explorations, serving both as subject and metaphor. In his portraits, each face becomes a narrative—etched in color, shadow, and silence.

This exhibition is not a declaration, but an invitation—to experience the poetic drama of light and pigment, of flowing color harnessed within form. The works are as unrestrained as they are composed—a celebration of color, contemplation, and craft. 

His paintings strike a rare harmony between conceptual precision and expressive freedom.

 

The exhibition is open to all, from 11 AM to 7 PM daily, and admission is free of charge. Art connoisseurs and enthusiasts alike are warmly invited to witness this exquisite confluence of technique and soul, and to immerse themselves in a visual experience that is both profound and poetic.
