Renowned artist&nbsp;Amitabh Asheshis showing his recent work in oil on canvas and pastel and charcoal on art paper in a solo art exhibition at Kamalnayan Bajaj Art Gallery, Bajaj Bhavan, Nariman Point, Mumbai 400021 from 27 to 31 Oct. 2024. &nbsp;It will be open there for free public viewing daily between 11 am to 7 pm.&nbsp;
This show is curated by Carmela Brunetti.
Amitabh Ashesh is an alumnus of Stanford University&rsquo;s Art Dept., USA. He was trained at Stanford University USA from 1988 to 1994 with the Bay Area Figurative movement under Frank Lobdell and other stalwarts. He has been a creative Director at JWT and Saatchi. He is also an alumnus of IIT Bombay. He has made about 120 paintings since 2014 and about 40-45 works from that series will be displayed in this exhibition.
The present series showcases the original creative work of&nbsp;Amitabh Ashesh&nbsp;on &lsquo;Yufism&rsquo; in oil on canvas and pastel and charcoal on art paper.&nbsp;It provides a new class of imagery on the &lsquo;Yufism&rsquo; compositional platform where scenic figurative and invisible elements share their attributes; the windows become blocks of light, the rain drops, a trail of ornamental beads and ripping sea waves are worn as a skirt, etc. Each painting is accompanied by a titular poem, elaborating its meaning and thereby arousing viewers with its parallel literary association.

Paintings by Amitabh Ashesh
He&nbsp;used conceptual innovations of Yufism, such as scenic elements in human figuration,&nbsp;anthropomorphic and recursive scenery, exploded objects,&nbsp;and blended forms for artistic effect. A collective recollection of various scenery in quotidian Indian life finds a prominent place in his work, such as Bangalore&rsquo;s famed Brigade Road, home cooking specialities, street dogs fed by kind strangers, etc. His work is innovative and eloquent, and he shares an instant dialogue with the viewers due to his clarity and lucidity.
