“Désordre” an exhibition of
Gesturism Art created by French artist of Indian origin Sen Shombit was
inaugurated by Yves Perrin, Consul General of France in Mumbai at ICIA Gallery.
At this expo he also unveiled Renault’s first Kwid art car painted by Sen.
“In the Kwid that Sen painted
at our invitation,” said Patrick Lecharpy, Renault's Design Director in Paris,
“it’s the first time an artist has narrated a story through his painting style
in an art car, in contrast to earlier art cars done by famous artists like
Lichtenstein, Warhol, Koons and Calder that showcased only the artist’s style
of art.”
Gesturism Art, the new
painting ideology created by Sen, is a creative celebration of the limitless
gestures of all living beings, from birth to death. “Sen has been able to
re-write the rules of contemporary art through a new and appealing chromatic
language,” said Alberto Moioli, Member of the prestigious International
Association of Art Critics (AICA) and Director, Enciclopedia d’Arte Italiana,
who as the Commisaire d’Exposition has curated Sen’s paintings for the Désordre
exhibition.
“Désordre is a wonderful
spiritual thought that captures the physical disorder of life in India,” said
Vickram Sethi, Chairman of the Institute of Contemporary Indian Art (ICIA)
hosting the exhibition, adding that “Sen’s paintings create an enigma that
defies logic. He invites his viewers to engage in his art through their
physical interaction. This participation is so engrossing that it leaves the
viewer with memorable experiences.”
