“Indian contemporary artists have not come to this standard. So I feel happy that I could present something to them. My work has a different meaning and something like this has never been done by any other Indian artist.”

“Young painters are amazingly involved in their own research and are coming into their own personal perceptions. There is great hope for the future of art here. We will be the most vital art expression in the world.”

“Razaji said that the title of the show is Vistaar and by that he means expansion. But Vistaar to me, when I look at his body of work, means expansion inside. As much as he has gone outside and spread his vibration, that much he has equally and as importantly, gone inside his soul, so that there is no difference between Raza the artist and Raza the person. And that is what makes this show really special.”

“This exhibition is a sum total of all my experiences and all my research.”

“We are thrilled that this work will return to India as a fitting tribute to the artist and a celebration of art from this region.”

“Well, art is reality, art is a muse if it helps us to realise the truth. It is the major guiding element which helps you to realise the truth.”
