Tribute to ‘Shehenshah Art e Alam’, MF HUSAIN
Article by Kinjal Desai.

On MF Husain’s first death anniversary, contemporary artists came together at Marvel Art Gallery, Ahmedabad, for the exhibition ‘Husain Through the Eyes of Painters’, paying homage to the legendary Maqbool Fida Husain through paintings, sculpture, memory, and imagination.

As Delhi and Mumbai brought attention to Husain’s lesser known works, calligraphy, and rare photographs, Ahmedabad remembered him through the eyes of six artists who translated their thoughts and experiences of the master onto canvas and form.

Artist Preksha Kapadia reflected on Husain saab’s fascination with Bollywood’s leading ladies, especially Vidya Balan after Ishqiya. Since Husain’s wish to make a film with her and paint her could not materialise, Kapadia created a tribute by placing Balan with Husain’s symbolic colourful horse from his Lord Ganesha series and his beloved Bugatti Veyron.

Artist Bansi Khatri honoured Husain’s poetic spirit by painting his life on a scroll, from ‘Maqbool nama’ to ‘Shehenshah Art e Alam’. His work traced Husain’s childhood love for elephants, his first solo show in 1951 at the Bombay Art Society Salon, and his journey as the pride of Indian contemporary art. To mark his sad demise, Khatri showed Husain’s symbolic horse with wings.

Harshil Patel portrayed Husain as the badshah of the art world on a gold playing card made of plywood. Through this work, he highlighted Husain’s skill, luck, powerful mind, compositions, concepts, colours, and subjects. Patel represented Husain’s life in India through nada chadi and his life in Qatar through gold, seeing his journey as a pack of cards filled with characters, including the Joker when needed.

A tribute, a memory, and a salute to the artist who carried Indian contemporary art into the world.

Remembering Michel Caza, one of the great masters of screen printing and a true print guru of our times.

Michel Caza passed away on 23 May 2026 at the age of 91, leaving behind a historic legacy in printmaking, art screen-printing and the global print community.

A co-founder of FESPA, he helped shape the global language of screen printing. His association with producing limited edition serigraphs, including works connected to the legendary American artist Andy Warhol and the iconic Marilyn Monroe series, remains a powerful reminder of his stature in the world of fine art printing.

His contribution will always remain important. He gave dignity, depth and technical brilliance to the medium, inspiring generations of printers, artists and art lovers across the world.

For us at DRS Arts Company, the memory becomes even more personal and special. In 2017, at SPAI, had the honour of receiving an award from Michel Caza himself. To meet him, to be recognised in his presence, and to receive that moment from a legend of printmaking will always remain one of our most cherished memories.

A great life. A great master. A great legacy.

A celebration is never complete when it rises alone.

In Ratilal Kansodaria’s Celebration, (2005) the balloons rise first. They are held by a world of figures supporting, pulling, balancing and reaching towards one another. The work reminds us that true celebration is not only about joy, but about shared joy. It comes alive when one person becomes part of another person’s happiness, when bodies gather, when hands support, when movement becomes collective.

Kansodaria’s sculptural mastery lies in making bronze feel almost weightless. Through elongated figures, open spaces, curved limbs and carefully held balance, he creates a sculpture that appears to move without moving. Each figure depends on the other, and this dependence becomes the heart of the work. The balloons may carry the visual symbol of festivity, but the real celebration is seen in the togetherness of the figures.

Vipin Singh Rajput’s work feels less like a painting and more like a discovered fragment of an inner civilisation. On wood, he gathers memory, script, soil like texture, wire, burnt marks and circular rhythms into a surface that seems to have travelled through time before reaching us. Every mark has lived somewhere before, in Khairagarh, in music, in childhood dust, in material struggle, in the artist’s own becoming.

There is something deeply human about the way this work holds itself. It keeps pulling you closer. You begin with texture, then enter memory. You follow a line, then find a rhythm. You look at wood, wire and pigment, and suddenly they begin to feel like witnesses. In Vipin’s hands, material is not just medium. It becomes memory with a body.

Vinod Shah (1934 to 2021) remains one of Baroda’s significant modernist voices, shaped by the Faculty of Fine Arts, MSU Baroda, where he completed his MA in Painting in 1961 and later served as Former Head of the Department of Painting. A National Awardee, recipient of honours from Kalidas Art Exhibition, The Bombay Art Society, and Lalit Kala Akademi, Gujarat, Shah’s practice travelled across India and abroad through major exhibitions and platforms including the Paris Biennale, Sixth Triennale India, and Asian Art Biennale, Bangladesh. His works are held by collectors, architects, museums, institutions, corporate houses, and consulate collections, making him an important name for collectors who value both artistic merit and historical placement.

In Nature Morte, Shah reimagines the still life not as a lyrical field of colour, line, rhythm, and memory. Fruits, flowers, vessels, forms, and landscapes appear with playful abstraction, carrying the ease of drawing and the discipline of composition. The portfolio moves between delicacy and structure, where everyday objects are given a life beyond the ordinary. As a complete set of six serigraphs, it becomes a collectible celebration of Shah’s visual language, intimate, modern, and unmistakably rooted in the joy of form.

Nature Morte by Vinod Shah, Serigraph on Paper, Set of 6, 14 x 14 in each, Edition of 300, 2015, Signed Lower Right in English.

A thousand-kilogram Gajraj sculpture made of cloth and wood by Prithviraj Mali

A 1,000 kg elephant sculpture made of cloth, wood, books, fiber, and mixed media represents knowledge and character. The 14 dreams and Ashtamangal, prepared by artist Harshil Patel, create an atmosphere of religious symbols that takes one from the external world to an introverted state. An important work has been done by the artist group of Ahmedabad regarding sculpture art.

This is one of the modern Jain artistic expressions at the 20-year-old Chandana Chaitya Jinalay near Mahudi Tirth.

Talking about this, Dhanvi Shah said, “The Anjan Shalaka, under the guidance of Subodhsagar Surishswarji, also shows the artistic approach of Uday Kirti Surishwarji, who is dedicated to art. In this, Ahmedabad artists Jayesh Shukla and Bansi Khatri have created wooden doors and geometric structures such as triangles, sun, and moon symbols, creating a subtle energy field. In this way, this idea is transformed into a contemporary visual narrative.

Each work carries its own voice, its own material language, yet together they form a larger conversation, where art meets design and tradition finds a contemporary rhythm, a collection where creativity, curiosity, and connection come together.

There are books you read, and then there are books that become part of your thinking.

For Dhanvi Rasiklal Shah, For the Love of India by RM Lala was one such presence. It did not alter his direction, it strengthened his conviction. It affirmed that business, at its core, must stand on ethics, purpose, and a responsibility larger than oneself.

The book’s value lies in how it reinforces belief, that true success is not measured by what one creates for oneself, but by what one builds for others, for society, and for the future.

In many ways, its impact continues to reflect through a journey where art is not just a profession, but a commitment to something greater.

With nearly 24,000 shlokas across seven chapters, the Ramayan remains one of the greatest ancient epics in world literature. More than a religious text, it continues to guide human life through virtue, righteousness, compassion, and responsibility, shaping Indian values, social ethics, and national identity across centuries.

To mark the second anniversary of the Pran Pratishtha of Shri Ram Janmabhoomi in Ayodhya, DRS Arts Company presents Ramayan: Eternal – Universal, a landmark exhibition bringing together 21 artists across generations. Through diverse mediums and creative interpretations, the exhibition reflects the epic’s universal message and its continued relevance in the modern world.

Ahmedabad and Ayodhya.
A tribute to the Ādi Kāvya.
