IntroductionTraditional Art And Textile Gallery• In the art world, contemporary Indian art is synonymous with the old

vanguard of M F Hussain, Raza and Tyeb Mehta.• the old traditions of Indian art that are deep rooted in all that is

Indian, some of which even inspire today’s ‘modern artists.• Gods and Goddesses are represented in fantastical forms, some

taking on human dimensions. All their beliefs and myths find expression in their art, mainly because most of the tribal languages have no written script.

• Since the 1940s, Mrs Anjali Mangaldas, then a child, gradually began collecting textiles, those from Gujarat being predominant. Each piece was selected with great care, with some being sourced from antique textile dealers in Ahmedabad and others during her extensive travels.

• Today, these textiles are repositories of a wide variety of techniques, serving as relics of a way of life – some of which exist no more, while others are still in practice or have evolved over the years, giving rise to newer traditions.

• This rich collection, which continues to grow, has been the inspiration for the new textile-themed extension of the hotel as well as a textile gallery, at The House of MG, which has acquired this collection.

• Gujarat has a rich heritage of folk arts and crafts. The various regions of the state are endowed with a variety of crafts which are deeply entwined with the life and culture of the people living here. The Gujarati women, in particular, are the main contributors to this rich legacy

chitrakala parisath

To know in detail about traditional art and textile gallary we visited one of the most famous art collage named chitrakala parisad .

there we have seen such a nice craft , paintings etc...

Many young artists from various parts of the country find KCP the best venue to exhibit. Folk and Traditional art forms are shown not only inside these five galleries, but also the overall campus is being used on special occasion that does not exclude the Open Theatre.

Prof. Nicholas Roerich’s work ran parallel with the School of Bengal Revivalism. This style synthesized the Far Eastern tradition of wash painting with traditions of Ajanta and Mughal painting. The medium used in these paintings is tempera. This gives all the paintings a chalky or pastel like quality.

Nicholas Roerich paintings

The artist believed in the concept of ‘Shambala’. This concept derives that the earth is linked to heaven and its realm on earth is a secret valley deep in the Himalayas.

The gallery holds 42 Himalayan studies of Nicholas.

Indian Miniatures, the canons of Tibetan Icon painting, ancient Russian painting, Muslim ornamentation, ancient Indian drawing elements, and elements of Greek and Persian art all amalgamate in his work.

Kejriwal galleryGallery one and two of the Kejriwal

collection hold an extensive number of works dating from the 1800’s to the 1950’s.

The folk paintings, Kalighat drawings, Santhal Pat (scrolls) and Patta Chitra rolls are housed in gallery one.

Mr. Kejriwal’s donations consist of about 300 paintings, prints, drawings and 65 sculptures.

Dr. Krishna Reddy GalleryThe geometric forms of his work deal with

principles of order. Schooled in both India and the West, his work combines the technologies of two vastly differing cultures

Krishna Reddy, conducted many experiments with the possibility of simultaneous color printing from a single metal plate

He studied at the Chamarajendra Technical institute (CTI) in Mysore.

The method he used to execute his works was the Wash method.

He copied Murals of Lepakshi, Shravanabelagola and Banasthali in Rajasthan. Two of the Lepakshi mural copies are housed in the Galleries of the Parishath part of this collection. The collection of works that are currently in the galleries were donated upon his death in 1991.

S S Kukke Gallery

Sculpture Gallery The conventional meaning of sculpture, as inherited from the West

is “A work of plastic art which is three dimensional, usually solid, durable and most importantly executed in a single dominant medium.

The dominating trends until the 80’s in sculpture were the figurative and abstract languages based on the formalized international modern.

The indegenised trend, which was based on sources deriving from local and regional techniques, became manifest in the 60’s.

The collection of sculptures in the galleries of the Parishath has works of artists like Sunil Das, Shyamal Dutta Roy, Bikash Bhattacharjee, Bimal Kundu and Meera Mukherjee. Most of these artists were part of a movement initiated to indigenise the sculptural movement.

Mysore Traditional GalleryThe collection of Mysore traditional style of paintings holds about 106 works, distributed over two levels. There are representations of Durga (Chamundeshwari), Vishnu and his incarnations, Shiva and other Mythological figures. These rulers claimed descent from the Goddess Chamundeshwari.The works in the collection of the Parishath have all been executed on specially treated paper and the colors used are mineral or vegetable dyes.

conclusion At the end of our project visit and experiencing real working space and

that environment of gallary i realize that being an artist is much more different because of theirextraordinary mind and creative mind.

The art gallary and craft meusium visit gave me a chance to experiance and learn what cannot be gained during lactures.one of the first thing that i have learnet is understannding the importance of colors emotions which is basic to be a artist.

furthermore i have learn many thing by identifying different typf of art,material and their uses,and also learning a lot abour the constrction,process and method that are used in doing all that plus by taking and asking question from the person who were guiding us at a site.

finally this visit helped for better understanding what i am going to face in future as a fashion designer and also giving me better understanding about colours,lines and texture art to help me in my studying.overall,it was a great experiance for us.

A special thanks to mohnapriya mam who gave us such n nice project and to work on it.and i would like to thanks my friend who really helped me a lot for making this pptthanks thanks to all........
