'''Jaideep Mehrotra''' (born 1954 in Mumbai, India) is an Indian artist. He did his schooling from [[Mayo College| Mayo College, Ajmer]] Starting his artistic career at a young age of 13,<ref name="autogenerated1">{{cite web |url=http://web.mac.com/jaideep/JM_Gallery/Press_Collage.html#0 |title='Fascinating Adult Art by a child' | year=1967 |publisher=[[Times of India]]}}</ref> Mehrotra works across mediums like [[oil paint|Oils]], [[Acrylic paint|acrylic]]s, cast resin sculptures, giclee prints, site specific installations and video art.

'''Jaideep Mehrotra''' (born 1954) is an Indian contemporary artist based in Mumbai, India. He started his artistic career with a solo exhibition at the young age of 13 in 1967<ref name="autogenerated1">{{cite web |url=http://web.mac.com/jaideep/JM_Gallery/Press_Collage.html#0 |title='Fascinating Adult Art by a child' | year=1967 |publisher=[[Times of India]]}}</ref>. Despite having no formal training in art, Mehrotra managed a parallel career of business and painting up until 1983<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/home/sunday-times/Smart-art/articleshow/608184472.cms?|title=Smart art - Times of India|work=The Times of India|access-date=2017-09-05}}</ref>, when he embraced painting as his solitary profession. 


Mehrotra's works manoeuvre away from conforming to the orthodox approaches. His paintings combine an aesthetic relation between various layers from which emerges a culmination which is rich in visual portrayal and intense in intellectual ideology.
Having been a part of the art world for over 40 decades, Mehrotra has worked with a profusion of mediums. His works steer away from conforming to the orthodox approaches. His inventive works are both rich in visual portrayal and intense in intellectual ideology, sometimes including socio-political commentary. 

He has served as a judge, panelist, jury member on various awards<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://in.blouinartinfo.com/news/story/1008862/inlaks-fine-arts-award-2014-announced|title=Inlaks Fine Arts Award 2014 Announced {{!}} Artinfo|work=Artinfo|access-date=2017-09-05|language=en}}</ref>, competitions and various art events.

In his youth, Jaideep was influenced by surrealist artists such as [[Salvador Dalí]] & [[Bikash Bhattacharjee]]. As an adult, the content of his work embraces both social commentary and arcane phenomenon. Paintings about life as perceived by society, or an enigma of sorts. People's relationship with their emotions and the interactivity with what surrounds them.

Jaideep Mehrotra
Born
Mumbai, India
NationalityIndian
Alma materMayo College, Ajmer
Known forPainting, Sculpture

Jaideep Mehrotra (born 1954) is an Indian contemporary artist based in Mumbai, India. He started his artistic career with a solo exhibition at the young age of 13 in 1967[1]. Despite having no formal training in art, Mehrotra managed a parallel career of business and painting up until 1983[2], when he embraced painting as his solitary profession. 

Having been a part of the art world for over 40 decades, Mehrotra has worked with a profusion of mediums. His works steer away from conforming to the orthodox approaches. His inventive works are both rich in visual portrayal and intense in intellectual ideology, sometimes including socio-political commentary. 

He has served as a judge, panelist, jury member on various awards[3], competitions and various art events. He has also had work sold at various auctions over the years, including Bonhams, Osian’s[4][5] and Saffronart[6].  

Early Life and Education

Mehrotra was born in Mumbai, India. He did his early schooling at St. Mary’s, Mumbai and then at Mayo College, Ajmer after which he pursued business studies from the University of Mumbai

Works

Pioneer of the digital medium as an art form in India[7],  Mehrotra has continually pushed the conceptual thresholds of his visual language to integrate different elements in his works – the historical with the contemporary, the traditional with the modern.

The creative quest of not confining to parameters, has driven him to experiment with different mediums and subjects, both within and without the two dimensional. This foray has led him to work with oils, acrylics, fabric, resin, the digital domain of installations, web based art, Giclée, audio-visual depiction and short films[8].
