Calcutta, often referred to as the “City of Joy,” has long been a source of inspiration for artists, writers, and poets. With its deep-rooted history, stunning architecture, bustling streets, and the Ganges River flowing through its veins, Kolkata has a unique charm that captures the imagination of all who visit.

The exhibition will present a wide array of artworks, spanning from watercolours to acrylic paintings. Avinash Trivedi’s creations eloquently depict the everyday existence and culture of Calcutta, offering a perspective that often remains familiar yet overlooked and unrecorded. Whether it’s the tranquil rickshaw pullers amid walls adorned with political graffiti in a quiet alley, bustling streets teeming with people and crows, the iconic trams, or the vibrant Durga Puja celebrations of Calcutta, visitors can anticipate an absorbing and immersive journey through these captivating portrayals.

Avanish Trivedi, a self-taught artist employed at Tata Consultancy Services, has a deep-seated passion for the world of art. He has had the privilege of showcasing his artistic creations at renowned galleries worldwide. Furthermore, he has conducted two individual art exhibitions, one at Taj Bengal and another in the California Bay Area, solidifying his presence in the art world.

During a live painting demonstration, the contemporary artist, Mr. Avanish Trivedi, expressed, “The majority of my art is rooted in the essence of Calcutta, a city brimming with emotions and untold tales, which I strive to capture through the medium of watercolour. My Calcutta Nostalgia Series was inaugurated at Taj Bengal, and ever since, it has garnered immense affection. Taj has graciously provided me with the opportunity to commemorate the 5th anniversary of this series.
