Art @ Telangana

Historically and culturally Telangana is a unique one whose history runs from B.C 500. GadhaSapthaSathi - a manuscript belonging to first century A.D compiled during the period of King Hala is an important event in Telanganas’ history process. Also are cities like Kotilingala and Kondapur which were once on the zeniths of perfection during the period of Sathavahanas.

Ramappa Temple built by the Kakatiyas is a symphony in stone. Buddhist sculptures of Nagarjuna Konda are world known art pieces. Temples and kings’ chambers expound countless mural paintings, epitomes of Jaanapada (folk) art like KaakiPadagalu and leather puppetry (TholuBommalu) are in the league of Telangana cultural heritage; the Deccan miniature paintings reflect the affluence of richness this land holds.

Painters like Devskar, P. T Reddy, Sayyad Ahmed, Sayyad Bin Muhammad, Kumarila Swamy, K. Rajayya, Kondapalli Sheshagiri Rao, Badri Narayan, Vasudev Kapatral and sculptors like Osman Siddiqi’s pieces of art are just invaluable.

Fifty years ago expert painters like Lakshma Goud, Surya Prakash,Gouri Shankar, Vaikuntham, Devaraj, D.L.N Reddy, Daroz, Ravindar Reddy, Chintala Jagadish, Kavitha and Narendra Rai are the forerunners in this league of pioneering painters. These have spread their works to every part of world and won applauds.

The next generation of artists are exhibiting their skill and proving themselves to the world. The newly budding artists are building their platforms and are ready for a jump start.
Telangana is a unique and self sufficient land historically, geographically, culturally and in areas of art and literature. The stature of Telangana is insurmountable. With this note that Telangana is an embodiment of perfected art, painting and sculptures. Its achievements are on par with any other cultures.

This event is to commemorate the many who have achieved outstanding success in the field of art. This is a gallery of those triumphant moments in art exhibiting those works.
