The Art Shop at Aakriti Art Gallerey's Hungerford Street premises in Kolkata is an interesting place. The idea of the art shop was actually to bridge the gap between the art world and the potential connoisseur. Thus for the new collector, it offers paintings and sculptures within a reasonable price range. At the same time, innovative art pieces like mouse pads, bags, coffee mugs each printed with an original painting by some of India's frontline artists, including Bikash Bhattacharya, Jogen Chowdhury and Satish Gujral are available. Beside these, it also offers monographs on individual artists, At the same time, the art shop also offers the latest issues of magazines like Art: News & Views, Art etc, Gallerie, Art Journal, Depart, Art & Deal. Subscription of magazines like Art: News & Views, Art etc and Gallerie are also accepted.

There are so many talented sculptors in this world. There is a very famous one,Botero, from Colombia, that I personally think is one who really created an style and will last for ever . I am showing you what I`ve got, most of them paintings, and you can see at least one of his volumes. If anybody wants to help with files, you are welcome.

Thats right Shan ,there are very talented artists who do get ignored,despite being sellouts.But that's usually because they refuse to genuflect to the flotsam and jetsam who call themselves artists,gallerists and curators.
In India it means saying HA....JEE ! or YES BOSS
