‘Imaging Sai’ is an art exhibition with a difference. The works in this collection have been<br />

created by the 42 invited artists as their tribute to the saint- Shirdi Sai Baba. They attempt<br />

to capture the essence of the persona and charisma of the Sufi Saint by highlighting his<br />

teachings and ideals.<br />

Revered equally by devotees from across religions and regions, the spiritual leader plays<br />

a muse to the group of artists featured in the exhibition. It was a challenge for them to<br />

demystify the personality along with his ideals and ideas that the guru himself had lived by<br />

and propagated all through his life and for which he is venerated by millions even in this day<br />

and age of materialism and science.<br />

We at <strong>Art</strong> <strong>Positive</strong> are delighted to have this opportunity to take forward the humanistic<br />

currents of Baba’s teaching. Together with the artists and our parent company, Bajaj Capital<br />

Limited, we will be contributing a portion of the sale proceeds from works in the exhibition<br />

towards a Trust being set up in support of Baba’s ideals for social inclusion.<br />

I am thankful to the artists for bringing in their creative expertise and helping us re-imagine and<br />

recall the Spiritual Guru in the light of contemporary viewpoint and for today’s society.<br />

Hope you enjoy the artworks and the experience as much as we have relished bringing it<br />

together in this exhibition.<br />

Warmly<br />

Anu Bajaj, Director, <strong>Art</strong> <strong>Positive</strong><br />
