Sanjay Kashinath Sable
Born in the middle of the ‘Flower Power’ generation in Osmanabad, he studied at Sir J.J. School of Art. He currently teaches art in city of Nashik. His work is a blend of indigenous motifs as well as Modernist treatments.

Santosh More
Born in Koregaon, Maharashtra, he graduated from Sir J.J. School of Art. More has often showed signs of his talent. An introverted, reflective artist, his earlier works were more introspective in nature. His current body of work shows a distinct shift, of an artist who is reflecting on his space located in the larger, urban landscape.

Sanjeev Sonpimpare
The body of work by the artist, collected for his exhibit, is indicative of the duality that exists in contemporary Indian, Urban life. His work is essentially conceptual, but done in a realistic style. The juxtaposition of negative and positive spaces suggests the tug-and-pull of energy between a somnambulist citizenry and a burgeoning city. It is of a collapsing space that is being sucked into a void and an entity, expanding into space, like a sleeping form - breathing in and out.

Prakah Ghadge
He has received six Maharashtra State awards in art and has had three solo shows in the city of Mumbai. He has rarely been shown outside Maharashtra, and this is probably the first time his work is being shown in Kolkata.
