Swaying in sanctity of Mysticism.
A mesmerizing work, meandering in the
unknown zone of Universe and creating the aura of mysticism is the apt
introduction of R.B. Holle’s creation. His interest in tracing the secrets of
nature was developed right from childhood as he is a sensitive person. His Art
has developed over the years and within ten years he is so famed as a talented
painter that, even the New York based Pollock
Krasner Foundation has acknowledged his art and offered him a Jackson Pollock
Scholarship.
 |
| R B Holle |
In this series Holle develops galaxy,
the whole Universe in a small frame by rhythmic presentation of granular forms
in acrylic on canvas and even in installations by using toothpicks. The forms
also seem to have movement, swift movements as it happens in Milky Way. The balance
of forms in circular motions with dark hues consisting of lighter tinges
creates a vibrant equilibrium; a complete cosmos and packed energy of life.
Also, being an aesthetic, Holle has a theosophical touch due to strong belief
in aesthetics and existence of God or mysticism. Those images have
romantic rural
environs of Kasari, his
native place. It breaths freshness, purity and virginity. The paintings offer
unfathomable, vast and clandestine world in the midst of realistic hustle-
bustle of metropolitan city, Mumbai where he presently lives and works.
To cater his
future dreams, this youngster wanted to settle in wonderland of Mumbai. But who
would support him? Initially he struggled and visited various Art Galleries,
showed his paintings to almost all the famed artists like Dilip Ranade, Laxman
Shrestha and Gaitonde. A few of them gave suggestions on improvements in his
paintings, some suggested changes in color combination and a few advised him on
the form of painting. Holle’s painting started modifying with the aid of these
suggestions. So, he
acknowledges his attainment of this vision of Art to experienced and supportive
seniors and fellow artists. Steadily, the real essence of Abstract
dawned on him that, an abstract painting is but a concentrated concept, expressed with
complete liberty. It is the image through which observer has to explore and contemplate
the core of concept and advent into unknown aspect of known possessions. Stars
in galaxy, colliding celestial objects, illuminating planets, this colorful and
shinning form of the Milky Way and its deeply rooted secrets seem to in the
paintings.
Holle is greatly inspired by the
philosophies of Saint Tukaram and Lao Tzu. He also highly regards Gaitonde for
his Art and considers him as his teacher. For him, at this stage of his
progress as an artists, his own paintings are not just formless colour play;
but a mirror image of unbiased and purest state of mind. Hailing from a small village in

Places and Spaces.

| R. B Holle |
He is not just a painter but musically inclined too and one
can feel his rhythmic sensibilities on reading his statement about his idea of
painting. Though he states it in his mother –tongue (Marathi), here is the
translated version of it, “There is a melody song in the silence and noise of
nature which can be hummed…if it is put in lyrics and particular rhythm and
resonance is applied according to its character , it can be made more melodious…same
is the attractive natural light….clearly introducing its presence in darkness,
indicating presence of life on this earth and universe around by being light of
the day…light radiating on the sand of shores, on the water, peeping from
behind the mountains…assuring life all over this earth…I have circuitously got
associated with it and the subject, theme and emotions in paintings have
unknowingly got its character…the association is like mother and child relation
which could not be selected voluntarily like wise my naval chord was cut from
nature.”
This promising artist has truly remained faithfully to his
passionate spontaneous painting related to elements from nature. In his latest
exhibition called ‘Place and Space’ held at Jehangir Art gallery from 04th
April to 10th April was a visual treat and meditative experience.
This time he spread on his canvas the vast galaxy which is million kilometers
away from our planet, a part of nature which is
unbounded, indispensable yet remained to be explored at its fullest and yet fascinating to us. Its thoughts and images mystify us. It a womb
where millions of stars, known and unknown planets are born and it is a womb
that gave birth to our own Earth, which again like its creator has so many
mysteries, beauty and mystical secrets hidden in it. Earth changes its makeover
with every region, season and natural changes. It is always a visual joy to
experience changing makeover of nature. The Galaxy above earth seems to act as
a hanging mirror and reflects characteristic of nature in every phase and
colour.

Holle has tried to capture this in his paintings. His
abstraction is always unwinding different aspects of nature. This may be
because he opened his eyes to see the world in a small village with natural
setting, a village called Aalandi in the lap of Bhimashankar mountain in
 |
| Pundole Art gallery |
Splash and swirls of colours seems spreading in rhythmic
pattern highlights artist’s love for music. Along with the aura of musical
compositions , there is a lavish use of colors of nature like blue and grey
depicting clear and cloudy sky or blue water and shinning sand, variation in
green of trees and plants, red, gold and other bright colors stand for birds,
animals, flowers and so on. In some paintings there is a glitter in midst of
grave dark background and this is his fascination for observing clear sky
during dark nights that he usually observed when he stayed in village and slept
in courtyard of his house, this beauty of nature has made permanent impression
on artist. Holle confesses of having magnetic attraction towards ‘light’ in
nature and its shine either in sky, on water or its ‘oasis’ effect on stretched
shores. Idyllic settings are the undetachable from his paintings.
His
paintings act as mode to escape from social turmoil for some time and have meditation
like effect to make one relax. Person is bound to go in trance and feel light
and peaceful. The present chaos in the world caused by natural calamities,
advanced technology and energy used to produce dangerous and destructive
weapons for mass destruction, unhealthy competitions among countries and
people, poverty and likewise reasons seems to have stimulated Holle to present
swirls, splashes charged with emotions something that is nice to eyes, mind and
soul. Installation is also significant as it represents Nebula from which
millions of small and big stars are born, all of them having their own DNA and
some of them so powerful that they are said to influence human existence on
this planet.
After college, he fully engrossed himself in abstract painting and today he is most coveted young abstract painter from Mumbai and Pundole Art gallery patronize his creation. His work is exhibited in almost all the reputed galleries in India and his paintings have been awarded and have the honor of being collection at N.C.P.A. Mumbai, Torent House Ahmedabad, Sir J. School of Art Mumbai, Apparao Galleries, Chennai, private collectors and many other collection in India. Holle has a long way to go as he says he doesn’t know what lies in future and which new makeover of nature and earth will be projected in his next creations, but he is confident of coming up with something beautiful and peaceful.

When we perceive a piece of artwork, we not only try to dive into the scenarios of the visuals in front of us, but we also peep into the world of the mind of the creator. The mind of the artist can be as complex as a maze or as clear as transparent stream. The artist creates a work of art after experiencing various kinds of emotions and incidents. The emotions can as simple as happiness, anger, hatred, joyfulness, etc., but sometimes it transcends to an experience which goes beyond a definition of common emotions. The interconnectedness of contrasting emotions gives way to an idea which can be explained through art, and art only. With the addition of living in this busy world, we go through many physical incidents which brings trauma, anxiety, love, hope, etc., in our minds. Culminating all these emotions and experiences, an artist takes a respite in creating their work of art.

In this exhibition, aptly titled ‘Ways of Seeing’, the artists are trying to portray their thoughts and comments in the everyday human life through their artworks. Every painting or print is trying to open our perspective in some issues or incidents while tapping into the emotions that are already lying inside our minds. Many a times what we see or perceive, we are unable to express them. These artworks are carefully curated so as to ignite a conversation and help in communicating with the audience about the unsaid emotions and experiences.

Nippon Gallery
presents a solo show by Sandip Sen. We are glad to introduce his works that
consists of German Expressions, erotic venting, striking and vivid Palate and
bold themes .
 |
Artist: Sandip Sen |
Sandip Sen completed
his BFA in painting from Kala Bhavana Santiniketan and pursued his MFA from
college of Art and design, bardhawan Sandip Sen is from Jalpaiguri , West
Bengal, India.
Incorporating Kalighat
Pata Painting style and themes notably Sexuality has been shown symbolically
through objects. Such as balloon, Kettle orchid, leaves and sperms.
Further elements such
as snake socks, grass, monkey cap, hand gestures, Electric plug, Nude female
figures and copulating animals have also been assimilated in the intellectual
paintings.
The idea of drawing
has many complex processes in the initial stages, where not only drawing and
painting but also thoughts are given a significant value. What the artist
visually studies is then transferred to actual works incorporated with colour
and attempt to present it in a conceptualized line. These paintings are
anchored with pen, charcoal, ink, pastel, water colour, oil colour etc. These
forms not only identify realism but also create another dimension.
 |
| Artist: Sandip Sen |
Line charges a crucial
impact in Sen’s works, where it not only displays a celerity of his thoughts
but also connects objects being laid on the sheets.
Black, red, pink,
orange, green colors began to dominate the painting in a symbolic way. Next
comes the use of gold, silver and fluorescent colors. At the same time small
particles are observed, sensuousness, eroticism, clippings of ads, human
figures, and antiquities are imposed more practically. 19th century popular
folk culture of kalighat patta, wood block etc. can be observed in his work
that are indulged with contemporary hoardings in cities that started producing
college works explaining his thoughts.
Artist says, “my art is to talk about sensuality. “More to say that sexuality doesn’t mean nudity or vice-versa and nudity doesn’t demand only representation of the bare body. Sexuality is a feeling. It has no visuals but it is a visual language. Visual art starts with nudity because it is the first stage of sexuality.
From the beginning of
his youth, the artist began to notice the pubic sign that changed his genitals,
growth of pubic hair, and the beard, hair in armpit and abdomen and changes in
hormones. The idea of sex gave him a completely different languages from where
some biological changes became the subject or his work.
To enrich the visual
language he used multiple layers including the digital on graphic quality at
some place, to bring about theatrical effect in the picture cutouts are
applied. He has started to use quotations from sexually related books.
 |
| Recent works by Sandip Sen |
Sen’s works not only
examine the inner desires of humans but also give them a unique look by
combining various figures and forms that indirectly are related to the themes.
His bold use of colors and subjects continuously attracts human consciousness while making our minds contemplate human biological developments.
Nippon always has and
will appreciate unique thoughts and works of contemporary minds and in this
respect we exhibit Sandip Sen's art works.

The show is based on upcoming the young contemporary artists, who they present through their artworks from different perspectives with various mediums such as water colours, oils, mixed media and etc.
Portrait and self-portrait is an expression; it can be self- portrait or other artistic representation of a person also. It is portrayed of someone's character or describes someone. It can be present by painting, photography, graphic art, video art, performance art etc.
 |
| Recent work Shanthi Kasi |
Portrait often gives deep insight, and offers an analysis that goes far beyond the superficial. Mostly depicted by facial expressions it is described you and your personality. It can be direct or indirect. Portrait or self-portrait reflects the human expressions and feelings. The self portrait is a projection of the self. It is a reflective physical appearance.
Self- portrait delve deep into psyche, complex personality, strong emotions, a chronicle of circumstances through life. Artists captured people’s inner and outer expression which comes out through their facial expressions. Mostly artists gazed into the mirrors and attempted to grasp their identities.
In general, there are three ways to tell the difference between a portrait and a self-portrait. One of the best ways to understand a self-portrait is through its title. Artists will often identify their self-portraits as such. Another strategy is to notice what type of action is being depicted. Both self-portraits and portraits often depict a figure gazing in the direction of the artist.
A self-portrait will often depict the artist at work in the process of painting their own image. The third way is to view the picture in the context of the artist's other works. The artist's subject matter can convey to the viewer the identity and character of his or her own image. For example, American artist Norman Rockwell's Triple Self-Portrait shows the first and second of these principles.
