With crores
becoming the new benchmark at art auctions around the world, the
buzzword in the artistic circles for some time has been money
and big-time money at that. After all, 2010 saw legendary artist
S. H. Raza break all conceivable records when his Saurashtra
sold for Rs 16.3 crore at the Christies in London. Bharti
Kher’s trademark bindi sculpture, The Skin Speaks a Language Not
its Own, was auctioned for a whopping Rs 6.9 crore. By the end
of the year, Arpita Singh’s mammoth mural, The Wish Dream,
which connoisseurs dub as equivalent to one solo show akin to 14
canvases put together, fetched Rs 9.6 crore.... Chang
