FRESH RAW MANGO: CELEBRATING BOLD EXPRESSIONS IN CONTEMPORARY INDIAN ART

Art thrives in imperfection, and Fresh Raw Mango is a testament to that philosophy.

Curated by Ranbir Rathi, Founder & Director of Nero Art Hub, New Delhi, this electrifying group exhibition highlights the raw, instinctive energy that defines the works of eight emerging contemporary Indian painters.

Each stroke, each shade and each canvas tell a story of fearless exploration, embracing complexity rather than shying away from it.

“These artists don’t just create—they challenge, disrupt, and redefine the boundaries of contemporary painting,” says Ranbir Rathi.

Their work is unapologetically expressive, celebrating the unfiltered essence of creativity. From bold color palettes to deeply layered textures, this exhibition brings together voices that capture the essence of artistic liberation.

Hosted at Nero Art Hub Gallery in South Extension, New Delhi, Fresh Raw Mango is open  from May 10 to May 31, 2025. 

The exhibition features the talent of Abhishek Kumar, Deepak Kumar Rai, Deepshikha Sharma, Shruti Goel, Nikhil Daksh, Reshma, Sarthak Varshney and Sugam Gaur.

Fresh Raw Mango: A Celebration of Bold Beginnings in Art

Fresh Raw Mango, part of Nero Art Hub’s Young Emerging Artists Programme (YEAP), is a vibrant tribute to this spirit of artistic discovery. The title itself captures the essence of the exhibition—like the first bite of raw mango, the artworks on display are sharp, tangy and unforgettable. Each piece brims with energy, reflecting the untamed instincts of artists who are still shaping their paths.

This exhibition is not just about showcasing talent; it is a powerful statement about the future of Indian contemporary art. Nero Art Hub reaffirms its commitment to nurturing young voices, providing them with a space to be seen, heard and celebrated.
