Prof. Chinmay Mehta
Once we go through the Bio data duly compiled by the researcher Miss Shiwani Singh who is registered for her Ph.D on“ life and creative achievements of Prof. Chinmay Mehta, we shall be able conclude that Chinmay’s versatility, his deep insight into art, his humane concern for society and his innate talent for novelty deserve to be recognized.. His multifaceted achievements as profile author, an art-philosopher, a visionary, a man of culture and an ardent crusader for the higher values in art and life deserve to be suitably rewarded by our society.
It is always fascinating to know people who carve a niche for themselves and Professor Chinmay Mehta is no exception. He was a Professor and Dean, Faculty of FineArts,University of Rajasthan,Jaipur (India ). But that is not all, he has other talents as well. He is multi-media Painter and Designer of Large size Mural (wall Paintings ) and Fantasy Resorts in ethnic and indigenous style. Not only exceptionally well read, he himself is an experienced author, writing prolifically on Art,Culture and Aesthetics. As a rare amalgam of academics with art he defies definition of his personality : a greater artist or an academician. It looks pretty much the same. He has come a long way. His work deserves to be evaluated according to high standards. Very few people during their life time pass through such an evolutionary process as is evident in Prof. Mehta. The trio that he embodies- painter, designer and academician- truly defines him and makes him a distinct personality. His genius in painting has found expression in a large number of paintings that have an abiding value even for coming generations ; his extraordinary breakthrough talent is manifest in the architectural designing exemplified in the ethnic fantasy shaped in Chokhi Dhani, a resort near Jaipur representing rustic ‘make believe’ environ ; and in Dhola ri Dhani in Hyderabad where one has to pass through the ‘willing suspension of disbelief’ as one is absolutely enchanted by the superb beauty of the place; his intellectual profundity and his administrative acumen can be discerned in his contribution to academics that he made in the capacity of Professor and Dean, Faculty of Fine Arts, University of Rajasthan for a long time until his retirement With his humane attitude to people; his kaleidoscopic insight into art and culture; his impassioned devotion to academics and an ever pulsating feeling to serve society as best as he can, would certainly go a long way to enable him to scale greater heights in art, education and culture. It is high time people like Prof. Mehta got their due for their sterling achievements in their respective fields. As the Chairman of Rajasthan Lalit Kala Akademi and also the Chairman of the State level committee for drafting the cultural policy of Rajasthan he is bound to make a mark by his outstanding contribution.
