Experience the magic of humor and critique unfolding in one place with Satirical Symphony: A Solo Show by A. Rajeswara Rao. The show, curated by Annapurna M. and Kiran K. Mohan, allows art lovers to inquisitively explore the satirical world of the artist, where each piece offers a new lens to view society. Running from September 12 till 18, 2024, at Visual Arts Gallery, India Habitat Centre, New Delhi, the show features multi-faceted compositions that instantly remind the viewers of their own dreams and fantasies.
Rao uses reverse painting technique on acrylic sheets to add intriguing perspectives and dimensions to his subjects, allowing his audience to connect and hold engaging conversations. Art connoisseurs, enthusiasts, and critics can feel the artist’s vision of illustrating the psychological desires of the physical self by simply depicting everyday people and their ambitions. Composed with a vibrant palette, his compositions weave a rich tapestry of the human experience that occasionally trick them into seeing beyond the surface.
In the words of Uday Jain, Director of Dhoomimal Gallery, “Rajeswara Rao’s bold imagery and satire create a deep impact on viewers. From his large works including, cityscapes, brides, men, and women, to small paper works with strong lines, imagery, spontaneity, humor, and satire, Rajeswara ji uses striking colour palette, superimposed figures, and deliberate choice of everyday situations involving mundane characters. With a grand success at Hyderabad, we are extremely excited to showcase the Satirical Symphony in New Delhi, where you can witness the proficient use of satire in his artworks and the title given to each of these.”
In the words of Saurabh Singhvi, Director of Art Maganum, “Rajeswara Rao’s ability to transform his observation of people and their mannerism into a believable surreal world, full of magnificence and quirkiness is exceptional. His technique, use of satire, and cognition make his style distinctive and work exclusive. He is an artist who is dedicated to his art by heart, which also impacts the versatility of his art. With the showcase of the Satirical Symphony in New Delhi, we promise to induce humour in your sensitivities.”
