Ajanta Show at Indiaart Gallery - Brief write-up |
Indiaart Gallery is delighted to present Ajanta collection which features intricate and beautiful paintings from the world famous Ajanta caves. These paintings have been painstakingly created by senior artist Vijay Kulkarni who has dedicated his life to painting Ajanta frescos.
The collection on display will include iconic Ajanta paintings on canvas such as Padmapani and Vajrapani, Preaching of Buddha, Royal Bath, Gautam Buddha in Dnyanmudra, Maya, Arundhati on a swing and several others.
Ajanta caves have several relatively well preserved mural paintings. The paintings cover wide ranging subjects such as life in the court of a prosperous king's court, several decorative motifs, Jataka tales, various avatars of Buddha and many more. The paintings at Ajanta amply demonstrate that the Indian painter had mastered an easy and fluent naturalistic style, dealing with large groups of people.
Milind Sathe, Director of Indiaart Gallery states that the Ajanta collection is precious and a must see for not only those who are interested in paintings and art but also for those who are interested in heritage and history. He further adds that Indiaart Gallery has also made arrangements to make available high quality canvas prints of these paintings.
