BIPIN KUMAR:

Bipin’s abstract art is a plentiful statement in itself which is not merely open to interpretation but is also a sea of unknown waiting to be dived into. His brand of art doesn’t jump out and declare “This is what I’m all about.” instead, it requires one to have an open and inquiring mind wherein they must enter the painting and see where it spawns them to. The abstract is the wind beneath Bipin’s wings which gives him the ample freedom his perspective craves to be fully unleashed and to explore its skies and to let the viewer assign their own meaning to it all. This intensely personal process enriches a viewer’s experience of his art whilst discovering their own inner expression through his treacherous journey. Bipin has worked over the years striving to depict social structures with many strata his work has subsequently grown into reflecting the absurdity of life and how it is always full of ups and downs which come in innumerable forms.

 

Anand N. Dabli:

To know the art of Ananda Dabli, one has to absorb the  abstract using the innermost part of oneself that one may not normally use or be familiar with, where colors are present but small particles. As fragmented and distorted textures transmute their own tone and mysterious  lines appear, the painting of Dabli is full of nature and colours; there are thousands of tiny forms, shapes, layers and textures, and each of them has a meaning. Due to the effect it has on people, it can be rightly concluded that it speaks to the nonverbal parts of their existence. So you must let go of your need to put things into words and allow yourself to be taken in by his paintings. Observe what emotions, sensations or memories emerge and let your eyes relax and travel around the piece without expectation. Examine the colors, forms, materials, surface, and how they interact with each other. Take your time. Let the painting “speak” to you.

 

Uttam Chapte:

Uttam Chapte’s Abstract technique and surface texture used by this contemporary painter is enough to create an extraordinary experience for the viewer which is unmatched in its genre and level of art element. Subtle signs impregnated with the understanding of his creative extension of them speaks to the viewer and then this creativity dares to set aside any commitment. Contemplating and giving an artistic form to the entire art world landscape with a focus on nature is a testament to exceptional art skills that his works portray. The creation of the experiences of the painter and the wide range of art knowledge can be seen in which he has spread the layers of his experiences layer after layer of colors on the canvas in such a way that he creates curiosity and attracts people towards his paintings. With the help of this art, they are able to express themselves, they are able to connect with others, with their creativity, they not only understand the world but also use it to imagine and create beyond that. Same sense of art is evident in his art world. On considering the store of colors and textures in his works, it becomes clear that its store is mainly his art vision.

 

Satish Vamanrao Kale:

Satish Vamanrao Kale is a wonderful painter of our times, he has made a peculiar combination of thought and artistry that shows his splendor in modern contemporary art, his paintings made from time to time over his sage-like journey testify to the development he has undertaken as an artist unscathed and unhinged from time-blocks, at the same time, he also brings to the fore the fact that he cannot be bound in any format which presents his art perspective. The kind of technology and surface texture used by this contemporary painter in his paintings is a sufficient art practice in itself to create the extraordinary experiences that the painter has underwent and the same  is unmatched in its genre and art element, imbibing the creative texture of the paintings and the many seamless gestures.

 

Bapusaheb Janji:

It is very interesting to know how an artist enriched by the art tradition becomes himself a source of epistemology and plays the role of an intellectual artist. Keepin in mind the nature of the process, it seems necessary to introduce the artist who is none other than the modern art world’s peace-loving senior contemporary sculptor Bapusaheb Janji. Bapusaheb Zanje is a multidisciplinary contemporary artist who is a painter, sculptor, curator & a writer who has been in the art scene for the last four decades with many enviable accomplishments. This skilled sculptor incorporates the real world into his art which has gone through many processes. Bapusaheb Ji says that reality should be seen from the point of view of artists as well, the creation of his sculptures is as real a form as a tree spread across the sun-scorced environment of a valley surrounded by many types of animals and human figures filled with a spectrum of expressions. His craft is dynamic and brimming with expressions which makes his work alive, touching and sincere.
