Exhibition of Love Peace Harmony by Abid Khan At Ejaz Art Gallery

Exhibition of Love Peace Harmony at Ejaz Art Gallery

Ejaz Art Gallery: Born in 1966 in Lahore to a working class family, Abid Khan started practical life early when he began helping his father, who was an optician, after the school hours. Being a below-average student, his studies could never interest him. Drawing school charts and learning an optician’s skills were among his major interests. He continued working at his father’s shop until he earned his Masters degree in English literature in 1993. With a passion to paint and draw, he kept on practicing on his own, as he lacked resources to have formal art education. In 1996, he met a senior painter, Khalid Iqbal, and showed him his works. He agreed to guide him because of his seriousness in learning to paint and this was the turning point for Abid Khan.

In 1999, he had his first solo show of cityscapes, executed with dry pastels though it was well-received by the media and art circles, only one painting was sold at the show due to which he had a lot of pressure from his family to do something else to earn living. However, his father supported him and encouraged him to continue to paint. He continued displaying his works regularly in solo shows, winning appreciation and gradually having his share in the art market. Inspired by the impressionist painters Monet and Van Gogh, he is working for more than 15 years with 10 solo shows to his credit. Popular for his delicately treated landscapes, he works with soft brushstrokes and mellow tones usually on low textured canvasses. He is among the few Lahore-based artists working as whole-time painters. the works of Iqbal Hussain, Colin David and Khalid Iqbal have been his permanent sources of inspiration.

His latest SHOW will be at EJAZ ART GALLERY named “LOVE, PEACE, HARMONY” on 22nd October, 2014 and will be remained on display till 1st November 2014. If you are a real art lover then you should visit this exhibition. Some of paintings which will be on display are:

Very Beautiful Painting By Mashkoor Raza

Mashkoor Raza      |36″ x 30″|    Code: PT: 3721        Oil on Canvas

Ejaz Art Gallery: This very beautiful painting was made by very famous painter of pakistan “Mashkoor Raza”. This painting was made by a technique known as Oil on Canvas and have the size of 36 inches x 30 inches. You can see the detail and complexity of work Mashkoor has taken into this painting.

Mashkoor Raza is one of the most celebrated and talented artists of Pakistan who like to paint horses and women a lot. Once a senior artist said “The artist who is capable to draw and paint “A Horse” with its right proportion, and anatomy is a true and qualified Artist”. Mashkoor Raza is known for his Figurative Abstract and has been acknowledged by every viewer as well as artist.

Dutch and French artists tried to incorporated horses in their paintings over the last centuries but not a single one has created such creative and complex abstract compositions with a lively and exciting line work and no one has used such glowing colours in variegated synchronisations like Mashkoor in Pakistan. The majestic animal bears immense fascination for Mashkoor. Horses serve both as a subject and symbol in his paintings. He portrays horses as a symbol of beauty, power and speed. He maximises the impact of his strong drawing skills to establish details in small and large canvases alike. Mashkoor uses the language of colours, which contains a degree of independence from visual references in the real world i-e, Horse s and Women. 

Mashkoor has been holding solo exhibitions almost every year since he graduated from Karachi School of Art in Fine Art in 1972 standing first, in the First Division and winning a gold medal. Today he is proud of being one of the school’s first graduates. He has also participated in many national and international displays around the globe and his paintings have been selected for the art collection of the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. A large number of art lovers, artists, art students, art critics and collectors visited the gallery and admired Mashkoor Raza’s work and the book.

One of the Top Artist: A. Q. Arif

A.Q. Arif            |36″ x 60″|        Code: PT: 3214          Oil on Canvas

Ejaz Art Gallery: A. Q. Arif is one of the most creative artist, Pakistan has ever seen. His paint and brush combinations always surprised his viewers on every exhibition.

A. Q. Arif is mostly known for his landscapes, which are very complex in their simple nature since last decade. Landscapes show simplicity and directness in appearance but their references are complicated. The field choose by Arif is practiced by many is a challenge but he took this challenge and pursued excellence in it. His canvases are a combination of the legacy in the form of palaces, gardens, forts and havelis and buildings for places left behind by the Mughals as well as the people who inhibited these places. Arif uses modern techniques to execute his paintings. Arif paints his old theme of Mughal and colonial architecture and then adds images of Mughal miniature like elephant on the prepared ground at appropriate places. In painting the architecture, he relies on his own energy and profundity. He is also called as a trendsetter for the young artists, which are emerging in the genre of landscape painting with a particular vision in mind.  

Circumstances took Arif to Lahore. A city full of Mughal Art, Lahore fascinated the jubilant artist. He was mentally relaxed in his new surroundings. His settled emotions were obvious in his new body of work at Ejaz Art Galleries, Lahore where he played with shades of blue and green overruling ochre. The viewer found a new tune on A. Q. Arif’s canvases.
