Collectors Weekend | Edition 1

Art Alive brings to you Collector’s Weekend, an exclusive selection of artworks by eminent artists every alternate Friday. An initiative that aims to brighten up your weekend with selected art by Masters, Contemporaries and generation next artists. In the coming weeks, we will present a series of selected works, carefully curated to showcase works by masters as well as upcoming contemporary talent transcending across various genres of art.

In the first edition of the series, we are pleased to bring to you an exclusive selection of artworks by some of the most illustrious names in Indian art. We present the works of five Masters of Contemporary Indian Art - SH Raza, Krishen Khanna, Sakti Burman, Jogen Chowdhury & Thota Vaikuntam.

The aesthetic vision of Raza is beautifully captured in the master’s recurrent and most iconic symbol of the Bindu while Sakti Burman’s distinct style plays out on the canvas as he draws inspiration from mythology, experience and history. Caught between imagination and desire and constantly being navigated through personal experiences, Krishen Khanna's expressionist brush technique offers a glimpse of many untold stories. Jogen Chowdhury’s practice, deeply rooted in understanding the socio-political fabric of society is depicted by bold brush strokes that dominate his monochrome canvas. On the other hand, Thota Vaikuntam’s art comes to life showcasing the vibrant colours of Telangana through his graceful feminine characters.
