K.S. Kulkarni's Lithe Lines at Shridharani
Critic and Curator Uma Nair has been writing for the past 35 years on art and culture She has written as critic for Times of India and Economic Times. She believes that art is a progressive sojourn. She learnt by looking at the best shows in Washington D.C. and New York. As author her most important books are Reverie with Raza and Meditations on Trees by Ompal Sansanwal. LESS ... MORE Over 35 years of writing one has always been drawn to artists who love drawing and weave it into their alchemy of forms. Drawing is as much about life as it is about communication. a master, former Vice Chairman LKA ,was known for the treatment of light and form and depth of vision, and the techniques of creating works that belonged to both modernism and contemporary reality. Gallerie Ganesha, famous for its work for more than three decades in Delhi, opens Esoteric Expressions at Shridharani in Triveni Kala Sangam next week, with an exhibition of Karnataka born who made Delhi his home. The founder president of Delhi Shilpi Chakra in 1948, Kulkarni created works that embodied the ' soul of the people' and a ' process of progress.' Still lifes and people At Shridharani the art lover is drawn into an embrace of art as a tool that at once reflects and responds to a range of presentations highlighting the variety within the expression and discourse surrounding modernity. The faces with fragmented contours, the lucid still life, the human figures and drawings with neatly abstracted veneers all seem to unpack a number of narratives pertaining to the undercurrents of modernism. His exploration of contemporary idioms resonate through his strong use of colour and his love for creating a corollary of conversations that sift and sieve through time. Pictorial language in portraits His portraits on paper and canvas hold their drawn forms clearly composed in animated silence with a sense of balance and harmony even as they have Picassoic preferences, have a certain enchantment about he fills the forms with subtle softness it is the textured background and the eyes that catch your gaze for its simplicity and its candour. According to gallerist Shoba Bhatia, who has followed his works over decades, Kulkarni, born in a village in Belgaum in Karnataka in 1916, engaged with modernist techniques and mediums to create a his own individual pictorial thickened black lines echo an inchoate over colour and contour become the dominant signature. The flute player Kulkarni imbued his figurative works with the classical grace of Ajanta paintings and a distinctive modernist spirit. If some works evoked village life and seemed to carry the melody of a flute being played in the distance, his human figures showed grace and rural rhythms rising up in strong outlines. However, he neither idealised rural life nor disparaged urban existence—choosing to paint life as he experienced it. Mother and child His mother and child studies in the show are about life and lines, and human empathy and eternal love between mothers and offspring. He also draws our attention to a cross section of humanity that cuts across all boundaries. We are at once held in the connectivity of a group of different people living and working together in harmony and the beauty of and the eloquence of poetic realities all become a part of this suite of works. For Kulkarni drawing was the building block of painting. From techniques such as highlights and reserves, to material selection and the creation of the use of light and shading as a medium, artists for hundreds of years have found innovative ways to create light's textural terrain on a single sheet of this exhibition is a lesson in this artistic attainment. Kulkarni examined silently the central relationship between paper and light in the world of drawings and paintings in his life. Focusing on drawings from the collection we are enticed into a visual essay on lines and compositional clarity, as we look longer and more closely at these works and derive an even deeper appreciation for the skill, imagination and labour that went into them. This exhibition runs like an elegy ,and brings back the words of Jagdish Swaminathan the great abstractionist,author and and artist who in the year 1989, wrote about his friend Kulkarni : ' Kulkarni carries within him the supreme tranquility of a man in harmony with the cosmos, facing life's problems with the calm bearing of a sage. The personality of the artist is expressed with remarkable lucidity in his works, and each of his canvases is a little gift of peace and solace to the troubled Souls of his fellow men.'

Netflix to release decade-old K-drama that got its lead actor banned after massive popularity sparked messy court battle
Netflix has reportedly secured the rights to re-release Park Shin Yang and Kim Ok Vin's 2007 SBS K-drama that smashed records for the network at the time. Based on a webtoon, the series earned legendary status as one of the earliest to throw a spotlight on South Korea's brutal loan shark culture. Originally set for a shorter run, it was extended from May 16 to July 19 due to overwhelming fan demand. If you haven't caught on yet, keep reading. According to a Nate News update, the OTT platform is set to drop the K-drama War of Money, also known as Money's Warfare, in a restored high-definition format, almost two decades after its debut. Originally titled Jjeonui Jeonjaeng, the drama pulled in ratings that soared past the 36% mark, a rare feat then and even now. Officially recognised by the Financial Supervisory Service, it left a lasting mark on both the public and the entertainment industry with its unflinching portrayal of Korea's loan shark underworld. Also read: Taylor Swift says Travis Kelce served her 'chest hair' on baked bread; singer admits, 'his loaf tasted better than mine' Planned as a 16-episode run, the show's runaway popularity forced the directors to stretch it to 20 episodes plus a bonus, peaking at 36.3%. It set a benchmark in an industry dominated by soft-tone rom-coms, proving that fierce, gritty themes could bring massive audiences. While it's been streaming around a few domestic OTT platforms, this marks its first-ever global release on Netflix, part of the streamer's plan to expand its K-drama library, owing to the genre's sky-high viewership. While the show was a hit, it somehow led to its star Park Shin Yang, getting banned. When the actor first signed on for the drama, he was paid ₩45 million for each of the first 16 episodes. However, later, the director decided to make 4 more episodes, and by that time, the show had already gone viral, so Park hiked his fee and negotiated for ₩170 million per episode. The producers agreed at first, but later changed their minds, accusing Park of taking advantage. The actor then dragged everyone to court, and the court ruled in his favour. But it was after that that the Corea Drama Production Association (CODA) banned Park from appearing in any dramas made by its members. They claimed his high pay was more than what some production companies earned from broadcasters and said it was damaging to the industry. Fans around the world, about 5,600 of them, signed a petition against the ban. After being off TV for three years, Park was finally allowed to return in 2011.

But his life slams into its biggest wall when he's forced to face his father's massive debt, a burden that pushes him to the edge, nearly ready to end it all as loan sharks torture him. The chaos sends his mother into shock, she collapses and is rushed to the hospital. Desperate, Na Ra applies for a bank loan, but no one will touch him. His jealous boss sees the opportunity and twists the knife by firing him. Unable to pay the hospital fees, his mother dies. His sister is forced into a salon job, and Na Ra himself has to break up with his girlfriend in exchange for cash from Cha Yeon's disapproving grandmother, Madam Bong. Convinced now that everything bad in his life is happening because of money, Na Ra begins to see it as his greatest enemy, and to beat the enemy, he decides to become one. He soon jumps into the loan shark business, learning the strategies, secrets, and cutthroat philosophies of the trade, eventually locking horns with the top sharks in the business. While the drama also carries romantic threads for the star, its core stays locked on the dark, twisted turns of Na Ra's rise in the underworld.
