Special Report - Seascapes

- Event covered by Umesh

Seascapes was an unique event that happened in Dubai on the evening of January 3rd, 2003. The event was a combination of artistic vision and musical creativity.

Manupriam Seth - architect and painter, Anurag Tripathi - marketing and leasing manager, a percussionist and composer, Kaushik Gupta - market researcher and saxophonist fused their talents and provided an evening of stimulating creativity.

Manupriam's series of paintings, inspired by the sea, were displayed at his Intarch Gallery while visitors were treated to original compositions played by Anurag and Kaushik, on the keyboards and saxophone respectively.

There was quite a cosmpolitan turnout, the qualitative crowd who appreciate art and go beyond the average.

Recently, the Seascapes exhibition alongwith the live music component, participated in the Dubai Jazz festival (Jan 29-31) where the first 3 tracks along with a pack of 12 prints of the paintings were released. Dhwanii wishes this talented trio all the best in their future endeavours.
