Puducherry: The stained glass exhibition by Robert l'Heureux from January 7 to 21 is not to be missed.  The Canadian artist, who moved from to Auroville after selling his restaurant business, seems to have found his métier in the Union Territory.  The exhibition, on at Citadines, is open 2.30 pm to 6pm every day except Sundays.

According to art critic Chana Corinne Devor, Robert has always worked in stained glass.  “Glass is centrally important to him; it is part, if you like, of his very psyche. He understands it on a level that is effectively spiritual - and the result is a breathtaking blend of spirit and matter.  However, his previous work involved decorating and producing big and small lamps.  His Aurovilian work has taken a completely different direction.”

She goes on to add, “Robert has always been fascinated by air, ether or anything flying, from subtle bodies to the cosmos and its galaxies, planets, nebula and other celestial bodies. His compositions vary from what could look like a Miro painting, a mandala, a resplendent triptych of modern pattern, a Zen tree on a rock in the sea, a sailing boat and more. They vary from abstract to figurative, geometric or sinuous. “
