Shankar Ghosh, a revered figure in the world of modern Indian sculpture, left an indelible mark on the art world with his ethereal designs and monumental forms. His sculptures, each a masterpiece in its own right, continue to captivate viewers with their aesthetic beauty and emotive power. Through his work, Ghosh transcended the boundaries of the material world, inviting audiences to engage in a dialogue with the ethereal realm of his imagination.

The exhibition will feature a selection of Ghosh's most iconic sculptures, carefully curated to highlight the breadth and depth of his artistic oeuvre. The catalog includes notable pieces such as "Sitting Lady 3," "Tribal Couple," and the evocative "Parkour," each representing Ghosh's unique blend of form, movement, and emotion.

Some of the highlighted works include:
- Sitting Lady 3: A 25 x 15 x 11-inch bronze sculpture capturing the poised elegance of the feminine form.
- Tribal Couple: A striking 28 x 16 x 7-inch piece that reflects the rustic charm and deep connection of tribal life.
- Parkour: Measuring 22 x 12 x 6 inches, this dynamic sculpture encapsulates the fluidity and athleticism inherent in the human spirit.
- Reclining Lady 2: A 9 x 19 x 8-inch piece that exemplifies tranquility and grace.
- Why Kill?: This powerful 20 x 12 x 9-inch sculpture provokes thought on themes of violence and peace.




Visitors will have the opportunity to witness firsthand the transformative experience that Ghosh's sculptures offer, as they transport viewers into a world of beauty, emotion, and contemplation. Join us as we pay tribute to the enduring legacy of Shankar Ghosh and celebrate the life and work of this visionary artist.
