The idea behind a new, ambitious printmaking show courtesy Priyasri Art Gallery in Mumbai is to showcase the nuances of this unique medium, as well as track its past and present. Previously, printmaking used to be a chosen medium by many masters. In recent time though, fewer artists are experimenting with it for various reasons. The show looks to promote the art of printmaking by bringing it back into spotlight.
Among the artists whose works have been featured as part of the show are Jai Zarotia, Jatin Das, Anjoli Ela Menon, Akbar Padamsee, George Martin P J, Ghulam Mohammed Sheikh, Akhilesh, Amitabha Banerjee, Harren Das, Jagannath Mohapatra, Archana Hande, Arpan Mukheree, Sudhir Patwardhan, Sunil Darji, Arpita Singh, Atin Basak, Atul Dodiya, Anupam Chakravarty, Annupam Sud, Bhaskaran.R.B, Bupen Khakhar, Sunil Padwal, Surrendar Nair, Vilas Shinde, K.G.Subramanyan, Debraj Goswami, Paritosh Sen, Pinaki Barua, D.L.N.Reddy, Vishaka Apte, Yogesh Rawal, Zakir Hussain, F.N Souza, and Avijit Roy.
Other participating artists in the show include Baiju Parthan, Kashinath Salve, Kavita Nayar, Jinshook Shinde, Manjit Bawa, Nalini Malini, Jogen Chowdhary, Jyoti Bhatt, Krishna Reddy, Lalita Lajmi, Lalu Prasad Shaw, Om Soorya, P.D.Dhumal, Paramjeet Singh, Prathap Mod, Rajan Fullari, Rajesh Pullarwar, Ranbir Kaleka, Rini Dhumal, Riyas komu, Sanjeev Khandekar, Sanjeev Sonpimpare, Somnath Hore, K.Subbana, NagDas.V, Naina Dalal, T.Vaikuntum, Tanuja Yadav, Vaishali Narkar, Walter D’Souza, Yashpal Chandrakar, Krishen Khanna, and Sakti Burman.
Through their exciting works, the exhibit looks to give birth to a new dialogue - as a question of interpretation of the encounter with the other - in the real time interval of the interviewing tryst. And the prints, they keep the record of such an event. Self-effacing, but altogether real, a breaking or a wounding, inscribed into the very body of this beautifully produced test.
