Through the
binocular of
time, humans
have seen the
world and its
metaphorical
changes from
upfront and far
off as well. If
there's one
thing that has
made us
recognize these
ever changing
images and seem
even deeper than
as they are is
depicted
throught the
medium of art .
It is a language
that needs no
words which has
expressed the
history and has
attemped to
perceive the
future of human
existence. Even
though the
modernism in art
in Nepal has a
short span of
history its
arrival has
brought the
artists an
individuality
which can not be
measured through
time . This
acheivement was
evident in the
Sirjana
contemporary art
gallery which
hosted a sale
exhibition of
paintings that
offered more
than 300 art
works by various
Nepalese
Painters. The
price ranged
from Rs. 2000 to
Rs.5000.
The idea of this
exhibition is to
make accessible
art in the
Nepalese
community and
materialise a
local art
market.
According to the
gallery members
this might be a
step in securing
a stable future
for art in Nepal
. The art show
was on from 2nd
Nov 2003 to 23rd
Nov and is the
latest episode
in the series of
sale exhibitions
presented by the
gallery.
And as the
remains of the
day peep from
the canvas, the
paintings come
alive on the
faces of the
viewers and they
recognise each
other. Beacuse
now they have
understood the
essence.
