The solo painting exhibition by Golam Mohammed Joarder titled ‘Ruposhi Bangla’ (The Beauteous Bangal) has begun at La Galerie, Alliance Française de Dhaka.

The Inaugural ceremony of this exhibition was held on 6 July 2018.

Eminent artist professor Samarjit Roy Chowdhury inaugurated the exhibition.

Golam Mohammed Joarder, who holds a BFA from the Faculty of Fine Arts, University of Dhaka and has two published novels under his illustrious belt, found the ‘nature’ as his muse for the painting exhibition.

The ‘nature’ in his paintings, he states, consists of man and man’s circumstances. To him these two elements render as imaginable as well as abstract in composition. Joarder prefers the abstractionism, as to him the concrete form is 2-dimensional — either true or fake. The abstractionism, however, is open-ended, interpretable to the observer — one either understands a great deal from it or not. Joarder keeps that observer-to-be in his mind. His canvasses thus invite colours that are, by his own account, ‘gravitative’.

The exhibition will be open to all until 17 July 2018 in La Galerie of Alliance Française de Dhaka.

Visiting Hours: Monday to Thursday, from 3:00pm to 9:00pm, Friday and Saturday (9:00am to12:00noon and 5:00pm to 8:00pm), except for Sundays.
