As Cosmic Heart Gallery embarks on its 13th year, we are proud to present “The Great Indian Modern Masters”—an exhibition celebrating the genius and legacy of India’s most influential modern artists.
This extraordinary showcase brings together the pioneering visionaries who shaped Indian modern art, redefining artistic expression through their groundbreaking contributions.
Paying homage to four pillars of the Progressive Art Movement, this exhibition is a rare opportunity to experience the masters who transformed the artistic landscape.
“In curating this prestigious exhibition, I am reminded of how these luminaries form the bedrock of our artistic universe. Just as the Earth would be adrift without gravity, the world of art would be incomplete without their guiding brilliance,” says Jalpa H Vithalani, Founder, Cosmic Heart Gallery.
Through watercolor, pencil, pen, and ink on paper, this exhibition unravels the creative genius of: M. F. Husain, whose bold narratives reflect a deep engagement with India’s cultural heritage.
- N. Souza, whose unfinching exploration of unfiltered forms challenged artistic conventions. V. S. Gaitonde, whose meditative, minimalistic abstract compositions distill art to its purest essence. S. H. Raza, whose vibrancy bridges Indian philosophy with universal expression.
Their legacies form the foundation of modern Indian artistic identity, shaping not just the national art movement but also leaving an indelible mark on global artistic discourse.
Adding to this grand tribute, Dr. Udayraj Gadnis, Founder of The Spiritual Art Movement, has created a stunning six-foot sun in 24-carat gold and ruby paste. This remarkable piece symbolizes the radiance and
influence of these great masters, making it a centerpiece of reverence within the exhibition. Do not miss this extraordinary exhibition—an unparalleled tribute to the Great Indian Modern Masters.
