The exhibition Swara Raga Chitra by HN Suresh, Director of Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan, Bengaluru, was inaugurated on 14 June by Supreme Court advocate Sri Santhana Krishnan. Open daily until 22 June, the exhibition runs from 11 am to 7 pm at The Bhavan.

Artworks grounded in cosmology and music

The 50 digital paintings showcase a blend of cosmology and Indian classical music, with a focus on their scientific and metaphysical links. Featured works include Navagraha Mandala (nine planets) and Rashi Mandala (twelve zodiacs), grounded in astronomy and astrology.

Inspired by tradition, enriched by research

Each painting is visually vivid and scientifically supported, resulting from Suresh’s collaborations with leading scientists in India and abroad. Central themes of time and space tie the exhibition to deeper philosophical ideas.

The compositions accompanying the artworks were created by scholar-musician Dr. T. S. Sathyavathi, drawing inspiration from the Sri-Tatva-Nidhi of Krishnaraja Wodeyar III.

Hampstead play reveals genesisof UK-US ‘special relationship’

EASTERN EYE readers should keep an eye on the plays staged at Hampstead Theatre in Swiss Cottage. Earlier this year, it presented Sir Tom Stoppard’s Indian Ink, which won Best Production at Eastern Eye’s Arts, Culture & Theatre Awards (ACTAs) in June.

Now a run of Springwood has just con­cluded. It is my kind of play, taking real historical events and dramatising them for the stage. Springwood explores the gene­sis of the “special relationship” between the UK and the US. Lord Simon McDon­ald, Master of Christ’s College, Cambridge, is currently finishing a book on the sub­ject. He seems to believe the relationship exists more on paper than in reality – and, as a former permanent under-secretary at the Foreign Office, he knows what it is like to deal with Washington.
