Bengal Art in the age of Magnificence - Art exhibition July 27, 2009

Bengal Art... in the age of Magnificence - Art exhibition. We have a tradition of which any nation in the world might legitimately be proud. In our utter ignorance and often misled by the glamour of novelty we are ruthlessly treading upon our priceless inheritance in art and culture. The time has now come for us to fall back upon these traditions for inspiration and guidance, to dive deep into them for light and leading in our path of progress particularly in the realm of art and culture. Unless we do so further progress may well be impossible of attainment. There are still so much of art tradition left in our country, that we can easily work further for the betterment from these legacies of Indian art for many centuries yet. Bengal, once produced a good number of powerful artists some of whom are still producing standard works of art without seeking recognition. Participating Artists: Affordable art by Abir Karmarkar, Alok Sardar, Arpan Bhowmick, Ashok Mullick, Chandi Lahiri, Dhiraj Choudhary, Farhad Hussain, Jahar Dasgupta, Manoj Dutta, Prakash Karmarkar, S K Sahajahan, Samindranath Majumdar, Sanjay Bhattacharya, Shyamal Dutta Ray, Shyamal Mukherjee, Snehangshu Das, Somnath Maity, Suhas Roy, Tamal Basu & Tanup Nath.
