rt is a form of expression, through which one can explain his/her feelings and

emotions. In recent past, art reached on its vanishing point from our ownculture. This modern world is very much fond of other forms but they are not

serious about the culture of art. Since from the ancient times, the relationship

between the art and the struggle was very much parallel. The artists and the

sculptor put so much efforts and dedication into their creations. When we look at

any art with an eye of an artist, then we can realize how much love and pain they

suffer while making of it. Love is because as an artist his/her work becomes its

passion and they fell in love with their passion and pain because when an artistexpect a lot and people do not recognize the value of it, then it hurts a lot.

The Culture Ministry, Government of India runs a number of organizations to promote arts and aesthetics

in India and abroad. Out of the hundreds of autonomous and directly controlled institutions run by the

ministry, These institutions do not work only for the promotion of painting or sculpture but also for many

other forms of art. The Culture Ministry also runs various schemes to promote cultural activities byproviding pension grant, salary & production grant, scholarship to young artist, senior/junior fellowship,

and scheme of financial assistance for research support. All these activities in some or the other ways topromote the cause of art in some or the other way. Nevertheless, their moral confidence remains very high

from our expectations because in this art-dying atmosphere their mental and physical determination

touches the sky. Look at these paintings and sculptures. You

will definitely feel something different inside you.

As personally, I am not very much interested in paintings and sculptures, but when I first saw the

art galleries in a city, something touched to my heart and soul. While taking photographs of all these

beautiful creations somewhere I feel attached and very close to them. I have spent so much time with the

artists, shared many moments of joy and grieve. According to me, art is very

romantic and interesting and I think every new artist feels the same. There has

been a noticeable expansion in the realm of art over last couple of years in India.

There has been a rise in the number of art fairs hosted across the globe in the last

7-8 years. They have created an altogether new platform for art to circulate and to

be selling. Indian artists and gallery’s participation has grown steadily in these

years.

With marketing came brand building; something never related to art. Butwith the emergence of a global art market, brand value pervades the field. New

experiments, sensationalism and use of technology accompany an exponential rise

in art price around the world. The proliferation of private galleries and auctionhomes within India points to a strong domestic as well as an international market.

However, the market is again only for those who have enough to do business. I

tried to find the people who search for a balance between monetary and artistic

goals. Since 2000, the art market has seen a steep rise. Contemporary art from

India has gone global. The art fund, which is primarily concerned with art for its

investment value has witnessed boom right till before the recession fears.

As I have met many people from the different fields like people from

Business background, people from Media group, I found one-thing similar they all

were art lovers. They said, we want and we will maintain and preserve this artistic

form of culture forever, they also felt art is dying but we will cultivate it again

more powerfully than ever before, they belief that they have the tendency to

show the real art form to our coming future generation. After hearing all

those confident words, I was stunned and trying to visualize their words into

my mind, and came to the result that this form is not going to die. It has just

fainted little bit but this will strike back again with a new spirit among the

generation.

Now, I became an art lover too and went so many art galleries in a veryshort period time and I never missed a chance to go there because I wanted

to know more about art culture and the artists. I have visited galleries like

Stainless Exhibition by Mittal steel group, Art exhibition by very well know

artist Subodh Gupta, Triveni Art exhibition major well known gallery,Travancore Art gallery, Ragini Art gallery, Epic Centre Art gallery, and

Vadhera Art gallery etc. and came-up with a one result and that’s

 Art is everywhere, all we need to do is, Open our artistic eye 

once…….
