Bengaluru: Shivanand K Pattar, veteran artist and Lecturer of the Government Fine Art School Dharwad is holding a solo exhibition at the prestigious Jehangir Art Gallery in Mumbai. The exhibition is slated to be inaugurated on 04 June and will continue until 10 June.
Alumnus of Hampi Kannada University: Shivanand K Pattar is an alumnus of the Hampi Kannada University doing his Masters in Visual Arts. He completed the Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Karnataka University, Dharwad, apart from doing the AM, and GD courses from the Shri Vivekanand Kalamandira, Raibag in Belagavi district.
A gradual shift from figurative to abstraction: According to Gayatri Desai, senior artist and Varnashilpi Venkatappa awardee-"Shivanand K. Pattar's art practice reflects how the artist has shifted slowly from figurative to abstraction with time. The body of works, mainly abstracts, titled ' Elements' makes the viewer contemplate seriously on the elements of life and the elements of art simultaneously".

A trace of the artist's maturity: Gayatri Desai tracks the professional growth of the artist by opining-" With this concept at the helm, the big canvasses with pleasant translucent colours present a world of mystery to the viewers. 'Light' as a prominent and focal element in the oeuvre, animates the space with a fusion of horizontal and vertical bands of colours. Over time, these heavy bands of colours have been reduced to small thin stripes as a trace of the artist's maturity".
Rich visual sensation to the viewers: She signs off by concluding-"The colours too have mellowed gracefully and the big canvases are mainly in greys, browns, yellow ochre, and so on with the touch of brilliant flashes of light in the canvases indicating the artist's sensitivity in the handling of space and colours. The controlled implementation of texture against the smooth spread of colours on the canvases renders a rich visual sensation to the viewers. On the whole, the whole oeuvre generates sensations in the onlooker".
