Sanya Malik, the founder of the prestigious Black Cube Gallery, is set to present an extraordinary showcase that brings together an impressive array of modern and contemporary artists. This exhibition promises to facilitate a captivating dialogue across different generations, mediums, and materials, offering a unique perspective on the art world.
The exhibition features an impressive collection of works by renowned artists, including Krishen Khanna, Thota Vaikuntam, Himmat Shah, Mahendra Kadia, Madhvi Parekh, Phaneendra Nath Chaturvedi, Paul Kuntze, and Yashika Sugandh. Each of these talented artists has explored distinct artistic vocabularies through a variety of mediums, including painting, sculpture, embroidery, jewelry, and functional art, resulting in a diverse and engaging display.
The exhibition boasts a wide range of artworks, including sculptures, paintings, and embroidery, as well as jewelry designed by Thota Vaikuntam and functional artworks created by Yashika Sugandh. These diverse pieces come together to create a rich and layered visual experience that seamlessly bridges the gap between tradition and innovation, reflecting the gallery’s mission to foster a dialogue between artistic legacies and contemporary practices.
The exhibition takes viewers on a journey through decades of Indian modernism, with Krishen Khanna’s poignant portrayals of humanity, Thota Vaikuntam’s vivid depictions of rural Telangana, Himmat Shah’s timeless sculptural explorations, and Mahendra Kadia’s poetic abstractions. Madhvi Parekh’s folk-inspired yet contemporary visual language adds a lyrical depth to the exhibition, while Phaneendra Nath Chaturvedi’s dystopian figuration, Paul Kuntze’s reinterpretations of Baroque frescoes, and Yashika Sugandh’s functional, nature-inspired works provide a powerful contemporary perspective.
The exhibition will be on display at Art Mumbai 2025 from 13–16 November at the Mahalaxmi Racecourse, Booth C41, and will be open to visitors from 11 AM to 7 PM.
