Stellar International Art Foundation acknowledged MF Husain’s legendary status and his close working relationship with the foundation by putting the most fantastic of his legacy on display at an exhibition held at Capital Club in Dubai.
India is renowned for producing some of the best artists around the globe because of its culturally rich heritage and Husain’s genius has been the nation’s trademark for the past century. Hence, the exhibition was entitled, “The Journey of the Legend.”
The exhibition was almost a follow up to another that was held in UK last year. Husain’s masterpieces had never been exhibited with such grandeur there and it was the largest collection outside the artist’s estate.
Stellar International Art Foundation has kept its promise of going the extra mile to promote art and in 2014 it put on display the works of three artists at the seventh St. Moritz Art Masters exhibition, which was a region-wide display of Contemporary Art from India. A beautiful fusion of contemporary and modern, Indian and European and spiritual and secular art was on display.
The event was well-received by art lovers and more than 30,000 visitors were present to witness the work of few of India’s most renowned artists such as Manish Nai, Nalini Milani, Shilpa Gupta, and Dubodh Gupta.
Paresh Maity’s colourful and vibrant pieces were especially praised by everyone.
Stellar International Art Foundation also organised something apart from exhibitions when they participated in the Jaipur Literature festival. A comprehensive review of Paresh Maity’s works, titled Paresh Maity: World of Colours, was launched as a limited edition publication.
Vishwa Mohan Bhatt, Grammy winner and internationally celebrated musician was present along with the book’s author Sushma Bahl, art collector Anita Choudhrie and Maity himself. Ideas were discussed on how to promote art better.
Stellar International Art Foundation is dedicated in using art to unite people across the globe, a vision that was incepted by founder Anita Choudhrie. The Dubai exhibition was held on 14th March from 6 PM to 9 PM at Capital Club Building 3, 312th Rd. Gate Village but is also open to the public this month.
