About the Item
Sculptor Studio with the Endless Column, 2016
Acrylic on canvas
82 43/64 H x 107 7/8 W in.
210 H x 374 W cm
The artist's reference to fundamental myths of humanity and their analysis from the perspective of contemporary society is the foundation of his creation. Rădvan is fascinated by mythology, symbols, fabulous and ineffable, story and the legend in itself. His heroes emerge from the artist's deep desire to take possession of the myth, to understand the underlying springs, and to deliver it to the viewer in a manner that does not take account of norms and conventions.
The artwork "Sculptor Studio with the Endless Column" is a commentary regarding the reinterpretations of the symbols used by the renowned Romanian sculptor Constantin Brancusi. Alexandru Rădvan placed the Endless Column and other sculptural forms that made references to the important sculptors of the XX Century as Alberto Giacometti, Henry Moore, Niki de Saint Phalle on canvas. The painting is a cultural commentary regarding the historical debate between painting and sculpture.

His PhD thesis, "The fantastic image made by plastic means and literary means", is, like his entire creation, ample documentation and a fine commentary on ancient myths and mythologies.

Anil Kumar Yadav - Mahalaxmi - 36 x 48 inches (unframed size)
Acrylic on Canvas , 2014
( UNFRAMED ALL IN DOOR DELIVERED )
STYLE : Anil Kumar Yadav is an Artist from Kolkata who was born in 1984 a village in Uttar Pradesh. He grew up among villagers with modest lives and the village culture. The Rangolis at the village festival and the local potters’ fine works of art inspired him greatly towards art as a hobby and potential career from early childhood.
His father was then posted to Kolkata so their family relocated to the city. Once the capital of India, with its rich cultural heritage and character immediately caught my attention. He started painting for the first time in the city.
Since the central theme to his paintings is related to present day society, his works appear photographic or naturalistic. The religious ghats of Varanasi, Haridwar and other antique places attracted him for their cultural heritage characterised by the holy saints, antique architectures, old idol sculptures and mysticism, spirituality. So he portrayed the simplicity of the architectural doors, temples, sculptures and the beautiful narrow streets and ‘galis’ which holds beauty that can not be described in words.
He always prefers a highly realistic approach in his paintings for whatever he sees in his surroundings. He started to represent paintings in a form whose expression manifests a step ahead of photography. He has always tried to reach to a horizon where photography cannot reach and make a statement what is called hyperrealism.
