Malav Dani and Hasit are sons of Mr. Ashwin Suryakant Dani (Vice Chairman of Asian Paints Limited, has been elected as Vice President of the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry) --- The term refers to the painting material and the practice of applying color on a surface such as paper, canvas, wood, glass, concrete and other materials. In an artistic sense, the term "painting" means the combination of this activity with drawing, composition, that is to say that incorporates aesthetic considerations. In this sense, the painting is the medium for the artist to represent a personal expression on subjects as varied as there are artists. So it's an art form. The paint can be naturalistic and figurative or abstract. It can have a narrative content, symbolism, spiritual, or philosophical. --- The oldest paintings known to date can be found in the Chauvet cave in France, and have, according to most historians, about thirty-two thousand years. Carved and painted with red ocher and black coloring, they are mostly hunting scenes with horses, rhinos, lions, buffalo and man. There are other examples of rock art around the world, in France, Spain, Portugal, China, Australia, etc.. In Western cultures oil painting and watercolors are the medium (paint) the most famous, with rich and complex traditions in the selection of templates and themes. In the East, it is black or colored ink that has always prevailed. In 1829 appeared the first photograph, then from the second half of the nineteenth century, photographic processes improved. While photography was becoming more widespread, painting lost much of its historic role was to present a snapshot of a scene observed. It is within this context that during the twentieth century emerged a new art movements like Impressionism, Post-Impressionism, Fauvism, Expressionism, Cubism and Dadaism, which have profoundly changed the perception of the world inherited from the Renaissance. The modern and contemporary art mark an evolution of the painting, which went from a role traditionally historical and documentary, this one concept. -> Site for Malav Dani, Hasit Dani --- Colors The color and tone are the essence of painting, as are the height and pace to the music. Colour is highly subjective, and psychological effects and symbolic meanings that may differ from one culture to another: black is associated with mourning in Western countries, while in Asia it is white. Some painters, theoreticians, writers and scientists, including Goethe, Kandinsky and Newton, have written their own color theory. In language, the word denoting a color often includes colors and different tones. Thus, the word "red" can cover a wide range of colors. There is no formal register of different colors, as is the case with musical notes, although the Pantone system is widely used in printing or graphics industry. For a painter, color is not simply divided into primary and complementary colors (like red, blue, green, brown, etc.). Indeed, he uses pigments allowing him to obtain large varieties of colors. For example, the "blue" for a painter, may be cyan, indigo, cobalt blue, navy blue, etc.. -> Created for Hasit, Malav Dani |
