London.- The Grosvenor Vadehra Gallery is proud to present an exhibition of bronze sculptures by Dhruva Mistry from the collection of Nigel Greenwood. These include important works that the artist made while living in London from 1987-1990. The exhibition will be on view from May 6th to May 20th. A few of Mistry’s sculptures in this exhibition like Hanuman, Spatial Diagram 2, Woman 3 (Study for river), and Study for the Object are maquettes he made for larger public sculptures. Woman 3 is a study for one his most important large scale pieces called The River, which is located in Birmingham. This sculpture has been affectionately nicknamed ‘Floozie in the Jacuzzi’ by the locals. In this sculpture Mistry depicts a bold classical idealised form of a reclining female nude sitting in the middle of a large fountain. Whilst this is perhaps the most used form in sculpture, Mistry was able to add to some qualities to it that were truly his.
