Painting exhibition as tribute to artist B G Mohammad held

February 12, 2011

Mangalore, February 12: Several events associated with Dakshina Kannada appeared in the paintings of artist Sapna Noronha, whose solo art exhibition began in the city on Friday.

Ms. Noronha has dedicated the exhibition to her teacher, late B.G. Mohammed. Shabbir Ali, son of artist B.G. Mohammed, inaugurated the exhibition.

Themes such as “Bhoothakola”, “Kambla” and “Mosaru kudike festival” are the subjects of her paintings.

As S.S. Nayak, chartered accountant and one of the chief guests, said: “Some have interesting details which would have delighted her teacher. One such painting is 'Yield of the garden', where a woman with green bananas perched on her head is walking down a path. The sunlight filters in through a patch of sky above amidst the canopy of trees, lighting a few fronds of coconut leaves. Another is that of a man carrying straw on a cycle, 'Feet of Bahubali', and 'Woman at the waterfalls”.

He said that it was laudable that Ms. Sapna has dedicated the exhibition to her teacher at a time when acknowledging the teacher had become uncommon.

Ms. Noronha said that though she liked painting several themes, the tribute to Mohammed consisted mostly of subjects drawn from life in Dakshina Kannada.

She said, “This collection has more of Mangalore on the canvas. It has scenes that are fast disappearing from the city such as the painting of a bullock cart with hay, which I remember seeing in Mangalore in my childhood.”

She said that her teacher Mohammed would say that if he could have his students for two years, he would make artists out of them.

Narendra Kamath, skin specialist, recalled a time when Mohammed brought a painting to him.

When the artist was told he could have minted money in Mumbai with the paintings, he replied that the art was not for money but to share with the people of Mangalore.

Mr. Ali painted a landscape in minutes before the audience. Ms. Noronha has held group exhibitions and participated in “Chitra Santhe” in Bangalore.

She has held a solo exhibition of her works earlier in September 2010.

The exhibition is open to the public till February 15.

Palghar lynching: Arnab Goswami booked for promoting enmity, defamation

News Network

April 23,2020

Apr 23: An FIR has been registered in Nagpur against Republic TV channel's editor Arnab Goswami for promoting social disharmony and accusing Congress President Sonia Gandhi of orchestrating the Palghar lynching.

Three Mumbai residents, including two sadhus, who were on their way to Silvassa on April 16, were lynched by a mob in Gadakchinchale village of Palghar district on the suspicion that they were thieves. Nagpur Police Commissioner B K Upadhyaya said they received a complaint which was turned into an FIR at Sadar police station.

DCP Vinita Sahu said Goswami has been booked under sections 117 (abetting commission of offence by the public or by more than 10 persons), 120 (B) (criminal conspiracy), 153 (A) (promoting enmity between different groups on grounds of religion, race, place of birth, residence, language and doing acts prejudicial to maintenance of harmony), 153 (B) (imputations, assertions prejudicial to national-integration), 295 (A) (deliberate and malicious acts, intended to outrage religious feelings of any class by insulting its religion or religious beliefs), 290-A (public nuisance in cases not otherwise provided for), 500 (defamation), 504 (intentional insult with intent to provoke breach of the peace), and 506 (criminal intimidation) of the ipc. Another FIR was filed against him in Raipur, Chhattisgarh.

In a statement condemning Goswami, Maharashtra Congress said the killing has been wrongly given a communal angle despite ample proof of the contrary. "At a time when country is fighting against coronavirus pandemic, it is very unfortunate that a section of media as well as politicians are trying to create social unrest... [and] spread racial and religious hatred in society. Goswami has tried to create misogyny against women in the society. He made an outrageous remark against the Congress president on a live TV programme. This is completely unethical journalism and we publicly protest it. We believe in brotherhood and cannot accept such animosity. This will be dangerous for the unity and integrity of the country (sic)," it said.
