For
the overall development of human life
simultaneously with academic education an art is
also an integral part.
Art is more than
just a luxury, you see, art is a vital ingredient
in the lives of human being. Why, because it's the
spectrum of colors and patterns that drive your
mind to create a new world. Art can offer so much
unique and yet extravagant looks at life. If you
think about it, life is all one mural. "Life is a
work of art." Keeping that concept in mind Shree
Swaminarayan Vishwavidyalaya Pratisthana (S.G.V.P.),
Chharodi, Ahmedabad has organized one day
Kalashibir on 14th February 2004. This
Shibir was the new experiment introduced by the
S.G.V.P. for the first time with the help and
cooperation of Shri Hemant Pandya to derive the
student’s inherent capabilities in the field of
art through an interaction with the nation and
world’s renounced painting artists.
On this occasion
various artists such as Shri Gajendra Shah, Shri
Natubhai Mistry, Shri Bhanubhai Shah, Shri
Chandrakant Kansara, Shri Vraj Mistry, Shri Arvind
Patel, Shri Anant Mehta, Shri Milan Desai, Shri
Hindol Bhrambhatt, Shri Vinod Patel, Shri Bansi
Khatri, Shri Nilesh Suthar were invited and all
were provided with the Canvas and Acrylic colours
through which they have painted at least one
painting of their interest. Various painting such
as landscape, portraits, still life, real life
were created on this occasion. Many students of
Chharodi International School have also
participated. On that day one fascinating
incidence was arose when the student of just 1st
standard and the world’s famous artists were
drawing their paintings sitting together on the
same platform.
This was the great
day in itself as the day chosen was the Valentine
day; the whole world was celebrating the Valentine
day in their own fashion however on the other side
the S.G.V.P. family was imbibing the great virtues
from the artists through their creations. The
paintings created during this shibir will be shown
through this website in near future. Around five
hundred students have participated and enjoyed the
occasion. Invited artists have presented awards,
certificates and prizes to the students those who
have secured good result in their specific art
field. Sdg. Purani Shree Balkrishnadasji Swami had
honored invitee artists by presenting shawl and
garland.
Such type of shibir was the first in its kind
conducted by the S.G.V.P. and proved to be a great
success praised by the invited artists and gave
their constructive suggestion to arrange an
exhibition for the presentation of these creations
among the larger community and also insisted to
arrange such type of shibirs in regular intervals.
