Sangram Majumdar's 'Peel' Exhibition at Steven Harvey Fine Art Projects and PROJECTOR
From November 20 to December 22, 2013, Sangram Majumdar showcased his exhibition 'Peel' at both Steven Harvey Fine Art Projects and PROJECTOR in New York City. This marked his third solo exhibition with Steven Harvey Fine Art Projects. Originally from Calcutta and holding an MFA from Indiana University, Majumdar's earlier works featured realism, drawing inspiration from artists like Antonio López García and Euan Uglow. In 'Peel,' his focus transitioned to a blend of abstraction and representation. Notable pieces included 'Torque' (2013), 'Interrupted' (2013), 'Paper Tree' (2013), and 'Look, See' (2013). At PROJECTOR, large oil paintings such as 'Unbuilt to Suit' (2013) and 'Step Right Up' (2013) explored interior themes, though the exhibition faced criticism for favoring ambiguity over clarity.
