Palette Art Gallery Palette’s approach has been interdisciplinary towards newer discourses and media. The Works by Ten Masters. A Retrospective of the Works of Anupam Sud.

Palette Art Gallery, over the years has earned a distinction of having showcased and represented works by artists from the Masters to the young emerging talent. In the year 2001, Palette Art Gallery was conceptualized and conceived in the capital city of New Delhi, India. A contemporary space with a modern tone, the gallery attempted to give voice to the emerging talent of the day balanced with a roster of shows that presented the Masters of India Art through pre and post independence. Always innovative and always striving towards new paradigms, the Palette Art Gallery has, in its journey, reached many milestones and many goals. The brainchild of gallery directors, Rohit Gandhi and Rahul Khanna, the institution is spectacularly situated at a location, overlooking the peaceful greens of the historic Delhi Golf Club. Its very setting brings an element of Zen to its interiors and the sharp, minimalist design makes it a perfect canvas to showcase the very best in art. Palette has prided itself to present different medium of artistic expression ranging from the traditional to the experimental. Oils, watercolors, video, photography and performance art have all found a home at the galley. Special mention should be made of ground breaking shows such as The Bombay Boys in 2004 which exhibited the works of Sudarshan Shetty, T V Santosh , Riyas Komu and many more. The Absence of an Architect by Gigi Scaria. Systematic Citizen, a solo show by Riyaz Komu. Mapping the Conscience by Manjit Bawa which was also the great artist’s last solo and more recently Lost in an Urban Maze, a group show with some of the best Indian talent. Other significant efforts were, The New Order Beauty, a 12 artists show which included seven International artists and Spell Of Spill - Utopia Of Ecology , Curated By Veeranganakumari Solanki.

Working with stainless steel, laser-cut surfaces, WPC and acrylic colour, Yuvaraj Velu builds compositions from hundreds of small, repeated elements. These elements form intricate grids that shift between image and abstraction, revealing different details as the viewer moves in front of them.

The reflective quality of the material adds another layer to the work. The surrounding space and light, even the viewer becomes a part of the composition, causing the surface to constantly change. What appears to be a precise geometric pattern from one distance can begin to dissolve into movement and reflection from another.

In his Integrated Colors works, Velu brings the same interest in repetition and structure into a vivid field of colour. Blocks of colour are built from tightly repeated marks, creating a tension between the order of the grid and the energy of the individual elements within it.

Technology, architecture and human behaviour come together in the meticulously constructed works of Shovin Bhattacharjee.

Bhattacharjee creates imagined architectural environments populated by repeated structures, tiny figures and carefully organised geometric forms. His compositions often resemble vast urban systems that are dense, ordered and strangely impersonal, where the individual appears small within the larger machinery of contemporary life.

His architectural forms can feel functional at first glance, only to reveal something more surreal and unstable the longer we look. Rather than approaching the anxieties of technological life with solemnity, Bhattacharjee introduces a sense of irony and absurdity, turning familiar systems and structures into something slightly strange.

Working with acrylic and engraving on plexiglass, R. Magesh creates images that change character when illuminated from behind. Fine engraved lines sit against the dark surface, while the light brings certain details forward, giving the works an unusual sense of depth and presence.

There’s a subtle tension between the delicacy of the engraved image and the intensity of the illuminated surface. The works appear almost photographic at first, but closer looking reveals the physical process behind them. What comes through is the interplay of the mark of the engraving, the transparency of the plexiglass, and the gradual emergence of an image through light.

Magesh’s use of the light box transforms the familiar act of looking at an image. What might otherwise remain a static picture becomes something that shifts between visibility and shadow.

The city leaves a residue. In Joydip Acharjee’s paintings, that residue becomes material.

Working with carbon dust, iron dust, pigment and layered surfaces, Acharjee draws from the changing landscapes around him and how these sites become traces of urban growth. The materials themselves are part of this landscape; carbon collected from industrial sites and iron dust from factories enter the work as records of the environments he observes.

His paintings move between the monumental and the microscopic. Larger scenes are broken down into fragments, textures, and geometric forms. What appears abstract at first often has its origins in something closely observed and documented.

There is also a tension between where Acharjee comes from and the terrain he encounters now. Memories of the agricultural landscape of his childhood meet the concrete and industrial expansion of Baroda, creating works that hold two very different environments in the same frame. His practice asks what happens to nature, memory and our sense of place as the city continues to grow.

Repetition becomes a way of thinking in the abstract works of Ganesh Selvaraj.

Working with cut paper, vinyl, acrylic and carefully constructed grids, Selvaraj builds compositions from simple forms that are repeated, rearranged and brought into unexpected relationships. Fragments gather into dense, tactile surfaces, where each individual element retains its presence while contributing to a larger visual rhythm.

His process is both methodical and intuitive. Rules are established through grids, divisions and recurring forms, only to be disrupted as the work develops. In this movement between order and irregularity, Selvaraj explores the rhythms of existence — the patterns we return to, the repetitions that shape experience, and the small variations through which change becomes visible.

Born in Chennai in 1976, Ganesh Selvaraj studied at the Government College of Arts and Crafts, Chennai, and later pursued printmaking at Edinburgh Printmakers, Scotland. His work has been exhibited widely in India and internationally.

Jignesh Panchal’s works begin with the language of built spaces but what emerges is less a cityscape than a record of things being taken apart and put together again.

Mixing multiple mediums, Panchal constructs densely layered compositions from architectural fragments, geometric forms and shifting planes. His use of gold, silver, and copper leaf introduces a reflective, almost archival quality, as though these imagined structures belong to a place remembered rather than directly observed.

Series such as Mirrors of Antiquity draw attention to the movement of people, objects and ideas across time. Ruins, thresholds, passages and clustered forms become recurring points of departure, allowing Panchal to explore the chaos and order inherent in urban transformation.

Landscape, memory and imagination converge in the paintings of Om Soorya.

Working through layered pigments, atmospheric colour fields and intricate architectural and organic forms, Soorya creates landscapes that resist a fixed sense of place. His terrains move between the real and the imagined, between illuminated cities, forests, pathways and fragmented horizons, ultimately creating spaces that feel at once familiar and otherworldly.

Rather than simply representing the world outside, Soorya approaches landscape as a psychological and emotional terrain, shaped by memory, transformation, and the experience of a rapidly changing world. His paintings hold a particular sense of suspension. Places appear to emerge and dissolve, while light becomes both a visual presence and a metaphor for what remains, disappears, and returns.

Sketching is where ideas are first tested, explored and allowed to take shape — whether they eventually become a painting or a sculpture. Freed from the constraints of a finished form, the sketch gives Rajesh space to experiment, follow an instinct, and see where the work might lead.

His lines move freely across the page, connecting people, animals, places and moments. In these drawings, they become more than outlines — they create relationships between the different elements that populate his visual world.

A look into the sketches that form the starting point of Rajesh Ram’s artistic process, and the threads that connect his paintings and sculptures.

Working through oil and watercolour, Rajesh captures people, places and fleeting encounters with a sensitivity rooted in observation and memory. His scenes often hold the energy of everyday life — the movement of a crowd, the character of a place, or a quiet moment caught in passing.

These works extend the vocabulary of his sculptures into colour and gesture, revealing another side of an artistic practice grounded in lived experience and a lasting sense of curiosity.

On view at Bihar Museum till September 6, 2026.

In this video, Rajesh Ram speaks about the memories that continue to find their way into his work: his early years in the village, the people and scenes he encountered, and the lively bustle of the marketplace where different lives converged.

Those experiences became part of his visual vocabulary — a way of observing people, movement and everyday life that continues to inform his practice today.

In Kaghaz Ki Kashti: Retracing Memories of Boyhood, these recollections find form across sculpture, painting and drawing, transforming familiar scenes from the past into works that remain alive in the present.

On view at Bihar Museum until 6 September 2026.
