About - Neeraj Goswami

Neeraj Goswami was born in Patna in 1964. He earned both a Bachelor's and a Master's Degree in Fine Arts from Delhi College of Art. Neeraj received the Bharat Bhavan Award at the Second Bienniale of Contemporary Indian Art in 1988 and the Lalit Kala Research Grant Fellowship in the same year. He has executed some important Murals and commissioned portraits.

He has participated in several prestigious Art Camps/Groups Shows and has several solo shows to his credit including one in Paris in 1998. He has been proclaimed both by critics and viewers as an artist who has achieved excellence and is moving towards greater heights.

Neeraj's oils reflect his extreme facility with the medium. His works are ones of exceptional quality-his amazing tones of Celadon Porcelain and Onyx styrations create jewel like tones and a peculiar luminosity. Imbued with a textural feeling, the canvases project a vibration as if they are breathing visually. The technique of using oils to achieve a transparent/translucent luminosity is particularly his own.

In his own words "an artist remains aware though detached. The artist feels the throbbings of broader impulses around him more acutely. The joys, sorrows, compromises, excellence, pain, loneliness, all inspire the artist. Every experience catalyses creativity and experiences get sublimated" Eschewing trends, fads and traditionality, Neeraj Goswami has forged for himself an awesome reputation to become one of the most collectible young artists of the country. His is the art for the discerning collectors.
