B. Chavan Center, starting November 22. Subhash says, &#8220;Lord Ganesha has been a part of me since childhood and has always intrigued me. I chose the Lord as a subject to allow the common man to identify himself with my theme &#8212; since Ganapati is one of the most popular and revered Deities amongst the masses.&#8221; In his exhibition, featuring four sizes of images on canvas, 34 different paintings reveal Ganesha in various modes, from a librarian, to a common man, to an innocent child. Mr. Awchat has been working on the Ganesha theme for two years and says, &#8220;By way of personifying Ganesha through paintings, I want to prove that the Lord dwells in the hearts of all beings and not in temples alone.&#8221; On November 14, Subhash is also participating in a workshop with children. The canvasses produced at the workshop will be auctioned to raise funds for disadvantaged children.<br \/>\n<\/P><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>GO TO SOURCE PUNE, INDIA, November 13, 2002: Portraying Lord Ganesha using a digital printing medium, Pune-based artist Subhash Awchat,&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2602","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2602","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2602"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2602\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2602"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2602"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2602"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
