Veteran Artist Vipta Kapadia’s Retrospective Inaugurated By Renowned Film Critic, And Writer Amrit Gangar At Jehangir Art Gallery

Inauguration of the retrospective show, ‘Contours of Infinity’ of celebrated veteran artist Vipta Kapadia. This show was inaugurated on 21st January 2025 by Mr Amrit Gangar ( Film theorist, writer, curator and historian) in the presence of many art lovers and connoisseurs. This show was curated by Ms Sushma Sabnis, an art writer and curator and continues till 27th January 2025 at Jehangir Art Gallery, Mumbai.

The distinguished chief guest, Amrit Gangar, an eminent film historian and cultural theorist, inaugurated the show with a thoughtful address. Gangar praised Kapadia’s ability to transform abstraction into an evocative language of emotional and cultural resonance, connecting the realms of art and philosophy and drew attention to the conceptual layering in Kapadia’s art, aligning it with traditional Indian philosophies and the rhythms of nature.

Curator Sushma Sabnis shared her reflections on how an artist of Vipta Kapadia’s calibre, with a five-decade art practice, has perfected a specific visual language. Only by scrutinising her works does one create a dialogue. Sabnis further compared the ‘retrospective’ show to beautiful Mughal miniatures or intricate illuminated manuscripts, which bring the entire timeline of the person together, merging past, present, and future. The retrospective features a sweeping collection of Kapadia’s works, spanning explorations in oil, acrylic, and enamel on metal. 

Art and cultural aficionados, critics, fellow artists, and Kapadia’s family members attended ‘Contours of Infinity and engaged in animated discussions about Kapadia’s legacy and the significance of abstraction in contemporary Indian art. The exhibition, running until January 27th, promises to be an enriching experience, inviting all to immerse themselves in the boundless world of Vipta Kapadia’s abstract legacy.
