Buwa Shete
Mother & Child, Acrylic on Canvas by Contemporary Indian Artist “In Stock”

2007

About the Item

Buwa Shete - Untitled - 36 x 36 inches (unframed size) Acrylic on Canvas, 2007 ( ROLLED AND DOOR DELIVERED ) Buwa Shete, born in 1960 in Maharashtra, India, is one of the shining new stars on the Indian contemporary art scene. He graduated in Applied Arts from Abhinav Kala, Pune, in 1983. After graduating, he worked with advertising agencies as a creative director and illustrator for several years, while painting simultaneously. His first recognition came when he won an award at the National Exhibition of Young Painters in Calcutta, organized by M. F. Hussain. His paintings for a calendar on "Philosophy by Various Saints" won the London Advertising Award in 1997. Buwa's paintings are in the collections of Theramax, Swastik Batteries, IKEA, ICIL, as well as in private collections in Mumbai, Pune, Delhi and New York. Shete has held two solo shows and a number of group shows in Mumbai, Delhi, and Dubai. His style is characterized by contemporary modernist figures, rendered mysterious by his uniquely Indian style. Buwa is unafraid of size and flirts outrageously with color. He uses everyday themes like parent and child (“Father and Child”, “Mother and Child”), and subject matter like priests and turbaned village men and turns them into a profusion of bold strokes and color, rendering contemporary, modernist images in rough, strong brush strokes that border on the fantastic.

Mahalaxmi, Acrylic on Canvas, Red, Yellow by Contemporary Artist "In Stock"
Located in Kolkata, West Bengal
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.
