This
has
been
the
dream
child
of
Smt
Nirmala
Birla
who
has
taken
so
much
effort
in
collecting
these
paintings
and
artefacts
over
the
decades.
The
Modern
Art
Gallery
was
inaugurated
by
the
then
Chief
Minister
of
Andhra
Pradesh,
Sri
N.
Chandrababu
Naidu
on
February
01,
2003.
Some
of
the
salient
features
of
the
gallery
include
:
A
painting
titled
‘Krishna’
by
Jamini
Roy
The
fascinating
work
by
Amitabh
Banerjee
titled
‘gossip’
Paritosh
Sen’s
‘on
the
Swing’
Akbar
Padamsee’s
1922
Samir
Aich’s
‘The
Women
1994’
Tayyub
mehta’s
‘untitled’
and
many
many
more..,
Other
eminent
painters
are
Krishan
Khanna,
Amitava
Dhar,
Laxma
Goud,
Surya
Prakash,
Akbar
Padamsee,
Sudhir
Patwardhan
and
so
on.
Their
work
will
also
be
appreciated
by
the
art
lovers
and
general
public.

Gallery

Among
the
modern
sculptures,
a
huge
bronze
figure
by
the
famous
sculptor
Meera
Mukherjee
is
of
outstanding
importance.
Among
the
other
noted
sculptors
of
the
country
such
as
Chintamani
Kar,
Bimal
Kundu,
Manik
Talukdar,
Somnath
Hoare
and
Niranjan
Pridhan
are
of
great
artistic
value.
The
Bronze
representing
‘Jala
Kanya’
by
Chintamani
Kar
is
another
master
piece
in
the
collection.
Yet
another
master
piece
by
Ajit
Chakraborthy
labeled
as
‘Cupid’,
a
boy
in
standing
position
is
of
aesthetic
value.
The
uniqueness
of
this
gallery
is
that
this
is
the
one
and
only
Art
Gallery
comprising
the
works
of
almost
all
famous
artists
of
India
on
permanent
display
following
the
modern
display
methods
in
India
and
in
particular
in
the
State
of
Telangana.
