Art Centrix Space is set to present MAGIC ERASE, a solo exhibition by Hemant Gavankar, recipient of the prestigious Art Centrix Painting Grant 2024. Curated by Sibdas Sengupta, the exhibition will be on view from April 6 to May 5 at the Gallery’s Space in Vasant Kunj.

Magic Erase delves into themes of transience, memory, and urban transformation, drawing from the evolving landscapes of Mumbai. Gavankar’s mixed-media paintings and video works explore the emotional and psychological imprints left by gentrification and societal shifts. His work oscillates between the “real” and the “hyper-real,” offering a magical realist perspective on displacement, loss, and identity in contemporary life.

As a leading contemporary art space, Art Centrix has been at the forefront of fostering artistic dialogue and supporting emerging talent. Through initiatives like the Art Centrix Grants, the gallery continues to nurture the artistic community while promoting diverse narratives in the national and global art scene.

Gavankar’s Magic Erase challenges conventional notions of space and permanence, urging viewers to reflect on the vanishing and evolving nature of both physical and psychological landscapes. The exhibition promises to be an immersive experience, encouraging deeper contemplation on the fragmented realities of modern existence.

When: April 6 to May 5; 11 AM– 6 PM

Where: The Art Centrix Space, Jain Farm, Behind Sector D-2, Vasant Kunj, New Delhi
