Sayyam … a Sanskrit word which evokes a sense of harmony, balance, wholeness. The perfect name for an exhibition brought to you by two rising stars in the art firmament … Gallery 5 and Artistree … who have come together to bring you the best in the world of art. Powerful yet serene, sublime yet evocative, Sayyam is a collusion, a meeting of minds and an amalgamation of energies featuring the works of the great masters. Gallery 5, brings you the rich heritage of art. Masters old and new who are immortalised on canvas and paper. Artistree is an energetic fellowship of young artists whose collection of fresh and invigorating oils on canvas kindle in the partaker a sense of longing for that pure and powerful world just beyond the reach of the mortal sense. Come and revel in the bridging of dichotomies, the merging of the halves, the yin and the yang of life and the underlying harmony of the universe. Discover yourself in the world of raw beauty and abstract perfection. Immerse yourself in Sayyam. Sanjay Sethia - Gallery 5 David Maurer - Artistree November, 2009 Angelina Kumar Arpana Caur F.N.
