About the Item

Jai Zharotia - Untitled - 12 x 12 inches (unframed size) Oil on Canvas Inclusive of shipment in a roll form. Born in Delhi in 1945, Jai Zharotia studied Fine arts from Delhi College of Arts from 1967-71. He became an art teacher at the Bal Bhavan before becoming a lecturer at Alma Mater in 1974. He then became a professor and head of the painting department at the same university in 2005. When seen in dept, a sense of duality pervades Zharotia's  works- it works between the visible & the invisible, the apparent & the elusive, the conscious & the unconscious. The role that fate and circumstance played in his life convinced him that as an artist, he must include what lay beyond the conscious in his work. Therefore, the duality between experience and imagination became the main tool in the artist's visual vocabulary. A clown-like figure can repeatedly be seen in Zharotia's works with a cap that resembles a dunce cap. This figure, according to the artist depicts a common man in this huge world playing many parts and characters. The figure over time evolves into a female acrobat, dancing and bending in impossible ways. Zharotia has received many awards such as the Lalit Kala Academy Award etc. His works have been acquired by institutions and private collections in and outside the country like the Alkazi Collection, KNMA and DAG Collection. Jai Zharotia passed away in March 2021.

Spieltrieb - Modern Figurative Oil Painting, Existentialism Art
By Piotr Kotlicki
Located in Salzburg, AT
Kotlicki is a constantly searching artist. Treading his own path, aiming at defining himself, giving his work a clear identity, he came across the avant-garde. He would back off the way, though, reckoning that a particular style imposes some limitations, and the real art is the liberation from the clichés and guidelines. Following this line of thinking, he managed to remain the independent artist, creating plainly under the influence of his own feelings experienced in a certain moment, the influence of certain occurrences. Kotlicki’s works are texturally rich to great extent. Along with chiaroscuro, the author plays with contrasts, setting flat colour patches with a thick, uneven layer of paint, round shapes with angular ones, oil paint with pastel, realism with non-descriptive painting. In terms of colours, he rather remains dedicated to monochromatism. The different colour appearing at times is to strengthen the effect of the domineering colour scheme. Similarly like in the case of chiaroscuro - it is not a compulsory action, the author remains open for his creative train of thought. Born 1972 in Poland. Graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Łódź, Poland in 2000, painting diploma by Prof. Ryszard Hunger. Currently works as assistant at the National Film School in Łódź at The Film and Television Directing Department (PWSFTViT). In line with his background, his creative work is multimedia-oriented with an emphasis on painting. They have been displayed at: Ningbo Museum of Art (China), the National Gallery of Art in Warsaw, the Audio-visual & new media arts festival Madatac in Madrid (Spain), the MS Dockville Festival in Hamburg (Germany), the International Video Festival in Novi Sad...
