GHANSHYAM GUPTA

Mumbai, India

"Ghanshyam's paintings are not just pieces of art where the brush touches the canvas; they are a part of life where the surreal connects to the obvious. His paintings are all about Inspiring Joy, Inviting Calmness and Invoking Oneness."

BIOGRAPHY

Ghanshyam Gupta is a painter who has the rare honor of exhibiting his creations along with some of the greatest artists of all times: Lucian Freud, Pablo Picasso, Paul Cezanne, Edward Munch, Henri Matisse, Rembrandt, and Albert Durer. This exhibition was the London Original Print Fair held in 1997 at the Royal Academy of Art, London.

He received the Nordsten Award for the Best Print of the year from the London Original Print Association and received the Art Museum Award Winner, from Tokyo International mini-print Triennial, Japan in 1998. Also to his credit is the most prestigious honor of receiving the Inlakes scholarship to study at the Royal College of Art, London. His works were included in Osians auctions.

He is a sculptor, printmaker, and painter. His works are constantly in transformation. His latest series of paintings are devoted to optical illusion on one hand and transcendental meanings on the other. Circles of colors revolve in centripetal and centrifugal permutations.

He says, in my new painting, the image will help you to meditate, concentrate, and make you realize the depth of colors and the strength of images. Colour is capturing the individual mind, relating to the conscious mind, and takes you to a different world, as well as it works as a color therapy to the mind. I am trying to touch the soul with the visual material. In short, I try to release the body, mind, and soul through my brush. The work has a high visual attraction that holds the mind and induces “Peace”.
