A female artist, A female painter. What is it that first strikes your mind when your hear these three words put together ? Unless you are an art scholar, there is only one name that you would think of, Anjolie Ela Menon one of the greatest Indian contemporary artists.For the past few decades she has captivated art lovers from across the world with her fine and exquisite pieces of art and it seems like her magic is gradually spreading. The great William Wordsworth once said “The child is the father of man”.Well in today’s world of gender equality it would be a sin not to have a female version of the same quote and so Anjolie now has competition from her very own grand daughters.
Delhi Planet was there to capture it all at the inaugration of Anjolie’s latest Art Exhibition Menongitis which is a celebration of 3 generations of art within the Menon Family, namely Anjolie, her son RajaRaja and granddaughters Indeera and Madhavi.
For all you art lovers out there Menongitis is a must see and for the rest, there’s a whole new world that awaits you, so head out and catch the great works of the menon family.
