…. Curator’s Pen by Prabuddha Ghosh

Coming from "Larger than Life-size" scale (for which RadhaDa is known for) to this "Common small things in life size" - is a big study, task  and metamorphosis of work pattern shifting is really remarkable and enjoyable too. Flow is there always with his works .. whether it's a story of age-old battery torch or a hand pulling rickshaw, starting from a kettle or iron for pressing clothes .... all are substantial and full of flow... flow and stream of emotions and waves of different yin and yang or dark and bright or fusion of all energies or complementary actions through the form of Musui and Maiya. The beam of light is important for the torch with giving full respect to torch itself, as well. .... and  so on .... K S Radhakrishnan is that magician who can swing the time back few decades with a contemporary subjective sensing ...     Words about his works from his mouth sound as a prolonged dream, which has just started, manifestation...

'It's a beginning, beginning of some new thing .... It's our starting day for Photography4all .... All are blissful ...' When you start to derive happiness from seeing some particularly awesome light, you’ll realize that photography has changed your everyday experience. It is a journey, journey through your experience with amalgamation of your feeling and views. You can’t make a photograph just with a camera. You bring to the act of photography all the pictures you have seen, the books you have read, the music you have heard, the people you have loved or hated .... When people look at my pictures I want them to sense the way they do when they want to read a line of a poem twice or thrice .... or want to listen same tunes repeatedly ....   Everyone, at some stage, is a beginner may be always in some fields. In work, a hobby, life in general. We look at those who have more experience and expertise than us and feel inadequate......

Education can be a head game…an affair of the mind. But teaching is an affair of the heart an affair of emotion and sense. Teachers are those, those ‘magicians’, who are the ones that challenge us; encourage us to dream and to achieve, achieve life in it's true spirit and pace. Teachers are having a wonderful voice of experience, seasoned with playfulness and wisdom. Salute all teachers, each day and everyday: Starting from Nature Mother .. Natural Mother .. and all teachers ... गुरु ब्रह्मा गुरुर् विष्णुः गुरु देवो महेश्वरः । गुरु साक्षात् परब्रह्मा तस्मै श्री गुरवे नमः॥ गुरवे सर्वलोकानाम् भिशजे भव रोगिणाम्। निधये सर्व विध्यानाम् श्री दक्षिणामूर्तये नमः॥

Rabindranath Tagore believed that the aim of education is self-realization. He himself was a poet and a saint, who had, through his imagination and insight, realized the universal soul in himself and in nature. He believed that this realization was the goal of education. Because the universal soul is the root of our own soul, man s aim in life is to reach that universal soul of which all human beings are parts. The evolution of nature is consciously or unconsciously driving u s towards this universal soul, a process that can be assisted by education. Even if it is not assisted, the progress towards the universal soul will continue, but then individuals will be deprived of self realization. It is thus evident that Rabindranath Tagore's educational philosophy is an adjunct of his general philosophy of life. He believed that every human being is one who has potentialities of progressing towards the Super human being, the universal soul. His conception of the universal soul b...

A student of the Government College of   Art   & Craft   in Calcutta, Sunil Das would later also study at Ecole Nationale Superieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris, and with William Hayter and Krishna Reddy at Atelier-17,   also in Paris. Known for his iconic drawings of bulls and horses, Sunil Das painted across several oeuvres, each one distinctive and to which he brought his singular vision. F. N. Souza once said about Sunil Das: ‘His paintings are often about death and horror… [He is] a master of the horrific in art.’ Sunil Das’s images of the bulls were inspired by his observations during a trip to Spain. And the horses were from, if not at Calcutta’s racecourse, then at the stable of Calcutta’s Mounted Police, where the artist spent his time observing and sketching them. One of India's important post-modernist painters,   Das rose to prominence with his drawing of horses. "I must have done 7000 horses between 1950 to 60," he says. "In 1962, I ...
