Echoes of Past and Future, a group exhibition of modern and contemporary art, opened with a preview on Friday, 24 April 2026 at Divine Art Gallery, New Delhi. The exhibition is now open to the public and will remain on view until 10 May 2026.
Bringing together an exceptional selection of works, the exhibition features celebrated Indian modernists including S.H. Raza, Ram Kumar, F.N. Souza, Krishen Khanna, Sunil Das, A. Ramachandran, Paramjit Singh, Anjolie Ela Menon, Manu Parekh, and Himmat Shah, among others. It also showcases significant works by senior contemporary artists, including Yusuf and Ashok Bhowmick.
The exhibition presents a diverse range of artistic expressions through paintings, drawings, and sculptures, offering a dialogue between different periods and practices in Indian art. By placing works of modern masters alongside those of later generations, the show highlights both continuity and transformation in artistic language.
Anjolie Ela Menon’s contemplative figures evoke quiet introspection, while Manu Parekh’s vibrant landscapes convey intensity and movement. Sculptural works by Himmat Shah contribute a strong tactile and material dimension, enriching the visual experience. Together, the artworks create a dynamic interplay of styles, themes, and sensibilities.
Echoes of Past and Future invites viewers to reflect on the evolution of Indian modern and contemporary art, tracing its journey across time while pointing toward future directions and emerging possibilities.
