Abhinav Kafare’s Multimedia Showcase

Pune’s newest art hub, Vesavar Art Gallery, is set to host a multimedia exhibition titled “EL- डोराडो” featuring the talented artist and photographer Abhinav Kafare. The exhibition, which will run from June 11 to July 12, promises visitors an immersive and multi-sensory experience through photographs, installations, and a thought-provoking short film.

Abhinav Kafare, renowned for his mastery of various artistic mediums and founder of the art collective “Bade Moochwale,” showcases his unique vision in “EL- डोराडो.” His captivating creations, characterized by intense yet sensitive portrayals of the human body and its interactions with the world, evoke deep emotions and invite contemplation.

The exhibition draws inspiration from ancient rituals and contemporary celebrations, particularly the Colombian Muisca coronation ritual and the “Birdev Yatra” near Pattan Kodoli, Kolhapur. Both rituals emphasize the transformative power of color and hold profound meaning. Abhinav’s photographic quest, inspired by the Birdev Yatra and its use of turmeric, invites viewers to question their perceptions of reality and appreciate the transformative potential of art.

Vesavar Art Gallery, located in a picturesque heritage building in Pune Camp dating back to 1926, provides a stunning backdrop for the exhibition. The integration of heritage elements with curated art enhances the overall experience for art enthusiasts and visitors. Vesavar Art Gallery aims to offer a platform for Indian artists to showcase their talents and create an enriching environment.

The exhibition “EL- डोराडो” opened its doors on June 11 and will be on view until July 12 at Vesavar Art Gallery. Visitors can explore the gallery between 10:30 am and 7:30 pm. For more information, including the location and contact details, please visit the gallery’s website at www.vesavar.com.
