EducationIn 2004 he completed his Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Painting from the Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University (JNTU) in Hyderabad and pursued a Master of Fine Arts degree in Graphics at the Maharaja Sayajirao University (MSU) in Baroda, Gujarat. He has received numerous important national and international awards for his work, including the 49th Lalit Kala Akademi National Exhibition award in 2006 for Remorse I and more recently first prize in the 2009 Bhopal Bienniale for Remorse VI. Later workSrilamanthula Chandramohan was at the center of a controversy regarding artwork that he exhibited at the Faculty of Fine Arts, MSU Baroda. At the time of the dispute he was a final year post-graduate student. Protests against artworks by Chandramohan began on 9 May 2007. The paintings were part of an annual exam, however by tradition, the public was invited to view the paintings. Times of India (7 May 2007) and Gujarati daily Sandesh (9 May 2007) mentioned that the works of art created by the students of the faculty as a part of their Annual Examination were open for public display on 9 May 2007.[1] Among the earliest to protest was the district superintendent of the Methodist Church in Baroda, Reverend Emmanuel Kant[2] He said,[3] Our religion is all about forgiving but there is a limit. I have passed on the word to the Roman Catholic associations and the Parish Association also. Their representatives and 20 other pastors will be here soon. We are also planning to take out a protest rally in the city to voice our concern. He also flayed Chandramohan for being "a vulgar and insensitive person who dared to portray Lord Jesus in an extremely objectionable manner". A group of irate Hindus, led by Niraj Jain, a Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) activist, accompanied by local police,[4] also came into the exhibition venue. Jain, who had complained to the police about the allegedly blasphemous nature of the paintings, demanded the paintings be removed. The two objectionable painting were described by University Vice-Chancellor Manoj Soni as:[5]
He has stated that "My aim is to show the purity, truth and reality in human beings using the images of god and goddesses."[6] There was no attack on Chandramohan, nor were his paintings destroyed.[7] There was no vandalism, although it was widely claimed.[8] Chandramohan was arrested and later released on 14 May.[9] Throughout the controversy the Indian art community rallied to Chandramohan's cause, claiming that the closing of the exhibition and his arrest was a direct assault of the rights of freedom of expression. Students and artists held protests nationwide.[10] A group of students and artists at MSU Baroda sought to stage a protest demonstration at the Faculty of Fine Arts by organising an exhibition of photographs taken from the classical and explicitly erotic sculptures that adorn the Khajuraho temples in Madhya Pradesh. When news of this protest exhibition was released, the Dean of the Faculty of Fine Arts, Shivaji Panikkar, was asked to prohibit it. Dean Panikkar refused, and was subsequently suspended indefinitely from the University.[11] The incident was widely reported in the national media as an attack by the Sangh Parivar,[12] in most cases with no mention of the Christian objection to the Jesus painting.[13][14][15] ArrestOn a note of meeting VC of university to ask for the reason behind the extreme delay of his results, Chandra Mohan entered university's head office and with kerosene set it on fire. Police further arrested him on criminal offence and the case is subject to law.[16] References1. ^www.artconcerns.com Report by AAACUA {{authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Chandramohan, Srilamanthula}}2. ^http://www.dailypioneer.com/columnist1.asp?main_variable=Columnist&file_name=ashok%2Fashok77.txt&writer=ashok The Pioneer > Columnists 3. ^Baroda: Art student's work stirs up controversy 4. ^Correspondence: On-Line Petition – Attack on M.
