Ankur Rana
Ankur Rana lives by the expression that "there are no established aesthetic rules, the artist creates his work following his nature and his instincts." written by the famous Expressionist painter Emile Nolde. Just as a plant sprouts uncontrollably out of the ground suited to its nature, The work of Ankur Rana sprouts out of the material world; with all its tangibility and excess. After graduating in Fine Art in the Western tradition, Ankar became a designer of Kashmiri shawls in which he worked with and explored the traditions of Indian motifs. Through his artwork he draws on both of these influences; Eastern and Western. Many of his paintings depict an extraction from nature set against a modern ambiance, oscillating between the rational and the romantic, bordering on the surreal.

Arun Pandit
The work of Arun Pandit can conjure feelings of calm, tranquility, peacefulness, even nirvana. His cerebral images, always in the round are actually portals to the artists soul. One can see the development of the painting from its earliest stages as a thought in the artists mind to the final product with just a single view. Arun is a unique and genuine artist with a distinct style of pianainting that is continuous, meditative and awe inspiring.
Arya C. Chowdhury
The treatment and style of which is used by Arya to form the images of his “Bengali Women” is displayed with such brilliant technical skill. He is an artist who exhausts himself in details. Making sure that the cloth surrounding his subjects are so realistic that they could almost be felt. Arya often plays with light and perspective in order to heighten the emotional aspect of the painting. Sometimes his figures are uninviting with their backs to the viewer and other times she is lying comfortably, drawing you into her world.
Ashish Mondal
Ashish rarely deviates from the subject and colors of a dreamlike female figure portrayed as the ultimate feminine being. She consumes his thoughts and is brought to life through his painting. Only the background and positioning changes from one painting to the next. These large-scale images are pleasing to the viewer and always full of life and fantasy.
Atin Mitra
Atin Mitra's dreamy, contemplative figures often evoke a meditative aspect to his work. With one image in the foreground, a closer look often reveals another image lurking behind. The translucency and delicacy with which he paints, adds to this shadowy effect. This technique can only be achieved by using Tempera- ground pigments mixed with egg wash that must be worked with quickly before it dries. With mystery and austerity, Atin's radiant Krishna can lure the will of any unsuspecting subject.
Avi Roy
B.R. Panesar
Babua
Babua fills his canvas with bright colours which lure the viewer, and minute details that draws the eye in many directions. His themes range from typical rural farm scenes to the whimsical fantasies conjured from childhood. His tiny brush-stroke, when added up to form a complete picture is his signature style.
Bhaskar Choudhary
Bhaskar's work is loved by many art collectors throughout India. In this painting of the goddess Durga, he has only given the viewer a detail of the image.. he often does this in his painting- leaving the rest to imagination. Although Baskar's subjects are usually of traditional themes, He also explores painting of women where he uses elements of anonymity and purity. With such precision, aptitude and elegance in his painting, it is easy to see why so many have come to adore Bhaskar's work.

Biplove Das
Chandan Das
Line, color and volume create a meditative expanses for the viewer. The minimalist works reflect the artist's perspective of nature. The palette knife excavates the pigment; the large brush-stroke pulls it in multi-layered colorful directions. The multiple layers of color are also suggestive of the various planes of emotional experience. The work bears the imprint of spontaneity and energy reflecting the spirit of the artist.
Debashish Ghosh
Debashish as an artist who operates on a very complicated level. His work is an amalgamation of influences from art, religion, science and literature. A mix of Picasso, Einstein, the Shiva-Kali duo and Kalighat Pat, His philosophy is based on time, with a sharp opposition to the East-West and Spirit-Matter divide that once separated Indian art from the art of the West. Like many painters of Indian art, each of Debashish's works are of one fleeting moment in the endless flow of time, and since Western art has caught up to this realization, he feels this East-West divide no longer exists in Modern painting. Debashish is a master of balance and form. He never stops challenging himself to not only produce works that are aesthetically pleasing, but also challenge the mind of the viewer.
Dibyendu Ukil
Dhiren Sasmal
Dhiren Sasmal has three themes that occupy his body of work; horses, young girls at play, and the goddess Durga. Unlike other artists, Sasmal changes his style of painting with each theme variation. He has explored and mastered so many styles of painting, that he is only limited by his imagination. His Durga paintings are among his best works. He portrays the goddess as regal and mysterious. His cross-hatch pattern and fine brush stroke are a brilliant display of artistic mastery.

Jiban Biswas
Jiban's work shows a keen sense of balance in terms of space and movement. A fluidity of thought is abound. His themes are often politically charged, yet playful. He uses his canvas to convey his views of the world. Juxtoposing the idea of peace with undertones of turmoil. Though the process of beginning a work or rather putting the images and ideas on to the canvas is a rather slow one, spontaneous creativity is revealed in the way in which Jiban begins his work with just a single image and then slowly builds up the entire canvas by painting images within images.
Joydeep Chaterjee
Many artists today express through art the peaceful and calm nature of India as a society. Joydeep is not one of those artists. He chooses to portray man as a complicated, reflective and tormented soul, caught up in the fast-paced, upward mobility of today's India that resonates so well with the "modern" Indian man. With a message and a mission, Joydeep has exploded onto the art scene with full fervor and passion. His art is cohesive and dynamic and leaves one questioning the intent of a life led by the power and demands of today's society.
Krishnendu Dey
Mintu Mallick
The delicacy in which Mintu Mallick approaches the female form is remarkable. He draws on classical statues to express an idealized image of women that is pure, uncomplicated and serene. Often exalted to the point of angelic purity, the women depicted in Mintu's paintings exist in their own perfect world, completely unaware of the viewer- engrossed in their thoughts and rituals. They are not to be possessed, they are autonomous- free as birds. Theirs is a world where beauty and power are unimportant yet always implied.
Partha Biswas
Pijush Kanti Gayen
Pijush is content with portraying the everyday-life and happenings of India. The scenes are familiar: a men's salon, a tea stand, or a dabha, yet the stylized figures are completely unique. Their expressionless faces convey that this is ordinary life to them, yet the viewer sees something mysterious taking place. The pattern-work detail in Pijush's painting is another element to suggest the typical repetitiveness of ordinary life that one comes to know, and love.
Prakash Karmakar
Prasanta Sengupta
The soft and delicate images portrayed in Prasanta's work have an emotional appeal that goes beyond the subject itself. It is the culmination of the brush-stroke, absent of hard lines, and the play of light and shadow that has the same emotional effect as the hard expressions displayed on the faces of Prasanta's subjects. The artist's attempt to lessen the suffering of these subjects is evident in the gentle and compassionate style in which he paints.
Rajkumar Sarkar
Ramratan Das
Ranjan Paul
In this canvas Ranjan Paul portrays his contemporary version of the Indian portrait. Almost expressionless, the face conveys a multitude of emotion. Ranjan experiments with textures in his painting and uses these same textures wether he is painting landscape, abstract or portrature. With such a diverse body of work, It is always exciting to see what Ranjan will do next.
Ranjan Sarkar
Sadhan Sengupta
Samik De
Samik De's precise line drawing forms the base of his incredibly detailed pen and ink work, as well as his colourful acrylics. His style is reminiscent of Jamini Roy, yet contemporary and unique. His subject is almost always that of gods and goddesses- stories from the scriptures come to life before the viewer. Samik's love of painting is evident in his work. He is an artist with serious devotion to his craft and his religious beliefs.
