The Bohemian Art Exhibition at Gallery 21

Islamabad’s Gallery 21 is these days abuzz with excitement as it hosts the highly anticipated Bohemian Art Exhibition by the renowned physician-turned-artist Dr. Farrukh Seir.

The exhibition, which runs through March 10, 2025, was inaugurated by Justice Nasirul Mulk, the former Chief Justice and Prime Minister of Pakistan. His esteemed presence added gravitas to the opening ceremony, where he commended Dr. Seir’s remarkable journey from medicine to the arts and his contributions to the cultural landscape of Pakistan.

Dr. Seir, who transitioned from a career in medicine to the arts, has carved a unique niche for himself through his vivid and emotive paintings. His works reflect the essence of Bohemian culture—freedom, individuality, and creativity. The exhibition showcases an eclectic mix of themes, ranging from abstract expressionism to nature-inspired pieces, including selections from his vibrant landscapes with detailed textures and rich colors, showcasing themes of natural beauty and the evocative Shepard collection.

Justice Nasirul Mulk, in his inaugural address, emphasized the importance of nurturing artistic expression in society. “Dr. Seir’s artwork beautifully encapsulates the spirit of creativity, inspiring us all to embrace the unconventional and cherish the beauty of individuality,” he noted.

As a special feature, Dr. Seir will also host interactive sessions, offering art enthusiasts the opportunity to delve into his creative process and gain insights into the inspirations behind his masterpieces.
