8.30 am:u00a0Last Saturday we found ourselves on a charter flight winging our way to Jodhpur to partake in premiere champagne maker Dom Pérignon’s Power of Creation weekend held at the magnificent art deco Umaid Bhavan Palace. It was to be a weekend of intelligent hedonism. A coming together of artists and epicures; men of learning and women of beauty, money and knowledge; gravitas and fun. The weekend in Jodhpur flowed quite naturally from the ‘ Creators Events’ hosted by Dom Perignon recently where piano-virtuoso Lang Lang, had engaged in a creative conspiracy with Dom Perignon and the cult Twin Peaks director David Lynch had given it a zeitgeist spin of his own. So in keeping with it’s fraternising with the best and the brightest this weekend would feature a jugalbandi between artist Jitesh Kallat and Richard Geoffroy – Dom Pérignon’s creator of vintages who showcase a creative combustion: the unveiling of two of Kallat’s recent video-installations: Forensic Trail of the Grand Banquet (A silent video installation, where the planetary clusters, are composed of X-rays of food) and Breath (in which the seven breads (rotis) in the installation go through an evolutionary cycle).
