PROGRAM: Inhuman by Deepak K.

For the second edition, Alliance
française will open with an exhibition called Inhuman which will showcase the
works of the artist Deepak K.. He is doing his Master of Visual Art in Painting
from College of Fine Arts, Karnataka Chitrakala Parishath.
“Deepak K (b1987) is a highly
motivated exceptional painter, who has a MA in Fine Arts from the College of
Fine Arts at the Chitrakala Parisheth, Bangalore. All of his works depict
fantastic world of his own, surrealistic in vision, both by way of his
delineation and handling of colours. Some sort of autobiographical elements can
be seen in some of them. Most of his works are in acrylics or oil and he has
done several drawings in his inimitable style on paper. He has achieved
exceptional results in his chosen creative media with his skill and gained
remarkable technical expertise. The drawings, as well as paintings, are
delicate and executed in masterly strokes. The placements of these elements in
the pictorial space in his creative works give a dream-like vision.” – Balan
Nambiar
Opening night on 3rd June.
The
Young Talent Program is a new project of the Alliance française that aims to
promote the local visual artists of Bangalore through a unique platform that
will showcase 6 to 8 exhibitions each year of some of the most promising young
artists. Curated by Franck Barthélémy and Balan Nambiar, the program intends to
push andsupport the career of the selected artists and to diffuse more widely
their work by giving them a field and a place to express their art.
