The organisers of the exhibition are “proud” to associate with Khan and also to help “him showcase his art, a hidden passion that the actor has nurtured for more than 15 years.” The show The Masters & The Modern, organised in collaboration with Google Arts, will open from Saturday at SGMF Bengaluru.
On Google Arts, Salman is described as a ‘versatile artist’. About his paintings, the website mentions, “His figures are impactful, devoid of emotion, but extremely arresting. Much like the characters, he brings to the canvas.”
