Binoy Varghese - Black is beautiful - 60 x 60 inches (unframed size) Acrylic on canvas Black is beautiful, photo realistic rendition, figurative, acrylic, bright yellow, brown, black, white by famous Contemporary Artist Binoy Varghese. Binoy is a mid career Indian contemporary artist much lauded for his works which are based on children and women in india and abroad. Binoy tries to bring about a social change in the society through his paintings. Style : Known for his skills in portraiture, his subject matter comes in a mix of landscape and a photo-realistic rendition. The colourful imagery on paper and canvas, often in a large format, focuses on issues of displacement, capturing posing protagonists, often women and children, in their newfound domains against a background of made-up environment of thick foliage interspersed with bright flowers. Their socio-political and gender realities are highlighted by the dress they wear or the sharpness or softness of the background and foliage in the work.

    Feroz Khan - Untitled Acrylic on Canvas, 55 x 42 inches About Artist : Mohammad Feroz Khan was born in 1978 and brought up in Delhi. He have not undergone any formal training in Art but gained experience first from his Father Late Mohd Ibrahim Khan, a Banner Painter. Subsequently, under the able tutelage of renowned Artist Late Manjit Bawa (Guruji - his Mentor in Art) he studied and learned Art for 14 years. Bawa took much care to train him to use brush and pastels on a variety of subjects, also guided him to savor the beauty and nuances of Texture. Then, as an initial step, his Guru guided him through a maze of depictable visuals scattered over the all too familiar places of Delhi. He asked him to draw inspiration from real life. Deferential to my master’s academic style of figuration, he soon convinced his guru of deft brushmanship and ability to create naturalistic human and animal forms, avoiding explicit linear delineation, while projecting solid masses. He chose to see the ordinary things and scenes that make up for our everyday life. He look at the little details of a tailor working on a manual sewing machine or a street-side vendor selling a cool drink on a hot summer day or rickshaw pullers or beggars and various other street vendors – denizens of the city’s poorest quarters. It is the sheer simplicity of each of these activities that appeals him and is reflected through his Canvas.

Covid, and its consequences, have become a common point of reference that we will all talk about and bear remembrance to for a long time.
