Opening:Thursday 1st November 2012, 6:30 p.m.Balassi Institute - Hungarian Information and Cultural Centre in cooperation with 'Delhi International Arts Festival – I C C R'

TüKöR - A TRIBUTE TO RELATIONSHIPS, a solo exhibition of paintings and sculptures  by NEERAJJ MITTRA.

Pleased to announce the presence of,. Prof. O.P. Sharma, Eminent Artist, former principal college of art, New Delhi,

Guest of Honour will be Mr. Lakshmi Shankar Bajpai,Station Director,All India Radio,New Delhi

 

In the exhibition, Neerajj Mittra presents a series of painting and sculptures that trace the artist’s perspective on relationships.

TüKöR is the Hungarian word for Mirror. The artist holds that everything is a mirror. Everyone is a mirror. Every moment is a mirror.

Human being is the ultimate being of introspection. By venturing outwards we venture inwards discovering and unfolding layers of our being.

How we relate to others in essence defines how we relate to our own self. Relationship is one such mirror. This is the subject of art for this exhibition.

The creations denote reflection of I unto I passing through various beings, verbs and occasions.

Neerajj Mittra's collection comprises thirty-two oil paintings & bronze sculptures that will be hung at the gallery with individualised ephemera containing

'art narration'. The narration comprises individual titles for each painting and a few essential of the thousand words they are worth. The idea of the narration

is to convey how every tribute to relationship must begin and end with the prime ingredient of any relationship and its reflection – 'I'.

 Neerajj Mittra is a Karnal born, New Delhi-based celebrated multidisciplinary visual artist who has exhibited painting, sculptures and installations in galleries across India and abroad. He has successfully concluded 13 solo shows and a plethora of Group shows, Two Men Shows, Camps and workshops. He was awarded with JENESYS - Scholarship to Japan as an Educator in 2008. He is an alumnus of College of Art, New Delhi.

The winged odyssey - an Artist's Biopic

Tükör has come at a personally critically important juncture for Neeraj. And what better way to commemorate it than a look back at the road that led him here. The Winged Odyssey is the short biopic  on Neeraj Mittra. It is about the mirror through which he chose to look at the world and what he offered to the world to know him.

 

Debut as a singer-BIRHA

 

Birha is loneliness induced by love to the lover who is away from his loved one. It is an inevitable and trying moment in every lover's life. Neeraj Mittra's Tükör would have been left incomplete without the echo of music - the reflection of our soul. He presents the music video of his first ever venture into singing. And like his other works of art, this too, is in his own voice, in his own unique way.

A Change For The Better

As you may or may not know, The Best Part is celebrating its 3rd anniversary of finding and publishing
the best of art + design on the web. It's been an amazing experience, I've met or spoken to some of the most
incredible artists in the world and learned a ton in the process. The numbers continue to grow, and my readers
have been incredibly loyal. You guys really are a testament to how far this blog has come in the last three years.

If you have any doubts of the intelligence of the blogosphere and its readers, simply go through my Twitter
 followers' list sometime and you'll see what I mean. From artists to designers to illustrators, photographers,
 creative directors and musicians, my readers are the very people I feature here every day.

It has also been a ton of work, however, and I'm reaching a point where it's time to focus more of my time and
 attention on creating prints and doing some work of my own. With that said, The Best Part will no longer exist
in its current state. While the Blogger platform makes things fairly simple, I'm still spending hours every day
finding, editing and publishing links when my focus should really be on creating prints. Which is why I'll be shifting more content to TBP's Facebook and Twitter accounts, allowing me to continue to share the great work I find daily online without the work and pressure of the daily blog. I will also continue to occasionally post to TBPTV, my online library of video content related to all things creative and inspirational. This blog and its archives will remain online as a resource for anyone who might want to find information on the artists featured here over the years.So with my last post on this iteration of The Best Part, I'd once again like to say thank you to my readers for three years of continued support and to all the artists who have been featured here; keep up the great work!

EXHIBITION > YOUNG & FREE: Contemporary Australian Street Artists

The YOUNG & FREE exhibition is set to be the biggest ever of it’s kind in America by showcasing the work of 13 very talented young Australian artists. It will be heading to San Francisco in September (and back to Australia early 2012)…

Artists include Anthony Lister, Kid Zoom, Ben Frost, Dabs & Myla, Dmote, Meggs, Rone, Reka, Sofles and Vexta. With sprays, stencils and paste-ups, the pieces in the YOUNG & FREE exhibition are as varied as the artists, their backgrounds, and themselves.

Opening on September 10th at 941 Geary Gallery in San Francisco.

"There are many similarities between Australia and San Francisco: both have famous bridges, internationally established street art cultures and, of course, trams. What is different is our beginnings. Australia’s criminal foundations have seeped into our national persona, Aussies are born with a spirit of rebellion. As the opening lines from our national anthem proclaim, ‘Australians all let us rejoice, for we are Young and Free.’…”
