In evoking the diversity of thoughts, ideas and poetics, this significant exhibition of Baroda-based artist Jeram Patel, belongs to a time when Abstract Art had become a dominant medium of artistic expression in the east as well as the west. This major collection of Patel’s works showcases sculpture in steel and burnt wood apart from works on canvas and paper. For the first time in Calcutta, the city’s art-lovers will be provided with an opportunity to explore the painter-sculptor’s mastery over diverse mediums thereby opening a window onto the artist’s creative process.
‘If you scrutinize a work by Jeram you will not look at things as they are but at things that be what they are because of an act of being.And if you wish to be more than what you are you must travel and be the interior of your own journey.Going by the way of Jeram may help…’R L Bartholomew.
