It took Ashwin Thadani, director, Gallery Isa eight months to plan an exhibition that could present art through various elements of science and establish the relationship between objects, space and time. <img alt="" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2013/jun/ribbit.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 505px;" /> Inversion visions (red, orange, yellow &amp; gold) by Mindy Shapero Thadani says he wanted to encourage a new form of art that would appeal to the thinking minds as well as to the heart. This led him to host Visions and Beyond &mdash; A Foray into Metaphysics and Materiality &mdash; a group exhibition that will showcase the untitled works of young international artists such as Germans Daniel Lergon and Dan Rees along with American Mindy Shapero. &ldquo;I am a lover of abstract art. Audiences like something that is unusual. This is my way of mixing two of my favourite topics through an art exhibition,&rdquo; Thadani tells us. As the exhibition is being seen as a test case, only 10 artworks will be on display. Artist Daniel Lergon says, &ldquo;Science plays a very important role in art, from astronomy to optics, meteorology and geology. It is good if we do this through a smaller exhibition where the artworks can be explainedu00a0better.&rdquo; All three participating artists have their own distinct focus, yet each one of them shares a common interest in abstract art. As Thadani says: &ldquo;Daniel infuses a lot of science into his art, mostly light. Dan Rees is more about intelligent humour and Mindy Shapero blends painting and sculpture in a mystical way.&rdquo; Since it is a group show, it was not easy to bring all the artists under one platform. &ldquo;I zeroed down on seven artists but only three of them were available. All of them are wonderful. Now I just hope that the audience appreciates it,&rdquo;u00a0says Thadani. When: July 5 to September 30, 11 am to 6 pm Where: 132, Great Western Building, 1st Floor, SBS Road, Opp Lion Gate, Fort Call: 66373432 /33 u00a0
