Last week, I posted 3 pictures of Tata Safari painted in an abstract style for the Weekly Photo Challenge – Abstract captured at the Cartist Automobile Art Festival exhibition in Jaipur. The event was organized in a garden that was recently opened for the public. Those three pictures posted earlier didn’t do justice with the exhibition as there was much more to it.I’m posting some more images from the Cartist Exhibition. People with creative and artistic minds will surely enjoy these pictures of unique creations; so will automobile lovers. Do let me know about your views through the comments below.
Let me start with a picture of the venue.
Artists giving finishing touches to the venue.
Due to the onset of summers, Sun is quite harsh. Therefore, the paintings were displayed in gazebos style tents to combat the scorching heat. Good move!
Artists were given due acknowledgment by placing artist information boards.
The exhibition also had a section dedicated to the logo of the finest automobile brands like Mercedes-Benz, Jaguar, Bentley, etc.
I found a very interesting art installation which drew my attention! Unfortunately, No one was around to explain its story. Let me call this “Red Head”
Here is a close up of “Red Head”

Parked in a row were ten hand-painted Tata Nano cars. In case you have never heard about Tata Nano, it was a benchmark standard in Indian automobile history with a launch price of USD 1500. It was a highly publicized innovation termed “frugal engineering” from an Indian automobile manufacturer Tata Motors, who also owns World’s top brands like Range Rover and Jaguar.

Information about its creator artist-Ms. Kanchan Chander!
Let me wrap this up with the most striking picture as well as creation!
I had posted a write-up on the Cartist event during Resurgent Rajasthan a few months ago, featuring hand-painted auto-rickshaws (Tuk-Tuk as some people prefer to call it). Click here to read this post.

I love the thought of art with a theme. In my hometown in September and October, a great art festival is held. Artists of all kinds are invited to display their work throughout downtown in all venues. Museums, bars, lawyer office, restaurants, etc. The public tours the displays, votes, and several winners are awarded.

Geethica, most people look at Jaipur from a tourist perspective. But there are many other aspects. The art and craft scene is thriving and I must also mention about the Jaipur Literature Fest which is now famous across the world. I’m sure you must be aware of JLF. Here are other interesting things you might prefer to check out : https://jaipurthrumylens.com/category/activities-events/

Happy to hear this, Avinash. Vintage rally still takes place every year in February. Of course, I haven’t written about it yet even though I have attended it quite a few times. Do you have a Jaipur connection, Avinash?
