‘Lyrics in colours’ by Harparkash Ludhiana, March 18 About 30 paintings focusing on landscapes and captivating still life are displayed in the exhibition. The landscapes and some seascapes are painted in flamboyant colours. He has captured nature in its various hues and these paintings rightly can be termed as ‘Lyrics in colours.’ His works are a simple study in nature. There is no sombre touch visible in his landscapes. He has exhibited only two portraits and these are very realistic. The artist seems to be expressing himself through his paintings. When asked his views regarding future of art in India, he said, “The future seems bleak. People just give a cursory glance and do not even register any remark. The silver lining is that younger generation is more interested in art. I was pleased when some students asked me to extend the exhibition for a few more days.” About 35 of his works, are on display in the Museum and Art Gallery, Punjabi University, Patiala. The chief guest, Mehar Singh, an artist, termed Jingal’s works as masterly. J.S. Bedi, a journalist, said his paintings should be a source of inspiration for the young artists. |
