Amret Patel

Amrut Patel born in 1947 in Ahmedabad, is a very well known versatile artist of India who has been educated in painting and awarded fellowship. He has been trained in fresco and mural techniques and has been a lecturer in painting for 7 years. His artworks portray mythology as he is a strong believer in the sayings of sages, tantra art and done lot of works of this style.
His works are also related to people and forms made by symbolism through poetry.
His abstract works made in acrylic have a transparency like water color. Amrut Patel introduced acrylic medium to India. His first exhibition in acrylics took place in Mumbai in 1972 and was a total sellout. His inimitable style speaks volumes. At times bold, colorful and playful and at other times subtle, soft and pensive. He brings about a beautiful contrast in the outcome. It is the strong convictions of the artist that is reflected in the final product.
