| Carmel Berkson |
Carmel Berkson studied history at Duke and Columbia University, U.S.A. but she soon became focused on the creation of statues in clay, wood, plaster and welded metal sheet. On a trip to India in 1970, Carmel came face to face, in their indigenous context, with the entirely different aesthetic of the cave and temple sculptures here. Having become fascinated by the country's sculptural traditions, Carmel Berkson's main focus on study during the past forty years has been the aesthetics and form life of Indian art. |

| Anwar Husain |
A sensitive mind, Anwar has always painted his inner expressions and clearly belongs to that rare genre of artists who paint what truly is their calling. In the last ten years he has been painting, he has created a distance base of collectors and art connoisseurs who have been following his progress and new works. Anwar has worked on several themes till date which include a series on Indian Classical Musicians which is done with his own special rendering of overlapping colours, creating a variety of tonality and movement through lines and textures. |

There is an old adage – “We all live under the same sky, but we all don't have the same horizon”. I strongly believe that life is an exciting journey towards newer and better perspectives. The very basic core of a man’s living spirit is his passion for new horizons. While our imagination and thoughts are the only real limits to our possibilities, the Joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences. Therefore there is no greater joy than to have an endless journey towards discovery and no matter how far we go the horizon is still way beyond us. This series of my paintings is an attempt to depict various aspects of this passion for new horizons. A quest - towards a different and A New Sun every day. |

| Vijay Kulkarni |
Vijay Kulkarni who studied fine art at Sir J. J. School of Art, Mumbai decided to dedicate his life to Ajanta paintings at an early stage in his professional painting career. The Ajanta frescoes are amongst the highest pinnacles achieved by Indian fine arts in its long, continuous march from pre-historic cave paintings to the contemporary art of the present day. Enough has been written about them–the masterful line-work, natural colours, primitive tools, the forms, the composition, the delicate delineation of emotions. |
