Alliance Française is conducting an exhibition on Calligraphy titled ‘The Nurtured Daughter, a series by Poosapati Parameshwar Raju at Alliance Française Hyderabad Gallery from March 1 to 14. Poosapati Parameshwar Raju is a world-renowned calligrapher and designer.
Calligraphy has a connection to the universe through harmony, beauty and divinity. This series by him depicts the journey of the girl who is conditioned to grow up to be the strong woman that she blossoms into. His artwork is curated by Koeli Mukherjee Ghose, an eminent artist, art historian and curator.
Parameshwar’s creativity as an artist, calligrapher and his expertise in communication, documentation and publication design, is celebrated across the globe. In his work, one can witness the phenomenon of a new genre that could be termed as iconic calligraphy. The artist engages with a distinguished form of expression that traverses both traditional and contemporary terrains.
His images are offspring of an epistemological discernment and the minimalist’s aesthetic, ensuing from his personalised research of iconography, signs, and symbols inherent in the Indian ceremonial culture. He has been practising for the last 30 years.
The preview is at 6.30pm on Friday, March 1.
A workshop on calligraphy will be conducted by the artist on March 9 and 10 at AFH Gallery from 2 to 5 pm. Registration for this is mandatory by March 8 as seats are limited. The fee is Rs 2500 per person for two days, with the material.
