Another day has gone

I’m still all alone

How could this be?

You’re not here with me

You never said goodbye

Someone tell me why

Did you have to go?

And leave my world

so cold?

Kozhikode: He was the, and still continues to be the artist who tops the chart list posthumously. He continues to remain the most loved, most discussed and most imitated artist till date. Despite being at the heart of some of the worst controversies the world ever saw, for Michael Jackson fans, this is the fifth year of loneliness from the day their king left the world without saying goodbye!

June 25 was the fifth death anniversary of this legend pop singer, who conquered the hearts of crores of people around the world with his marvellous songs and out-of-the-world dance moves.

The entire world is observing his death anniversary in different ways. Kozhikode too has joined in to show its love and respect for this great artist who passed away too soon. It is the artists’ group called fd’s gallery that has come forward to conduct an art exhibition as a tribute to the king of pop.

They have exhibited around 20 gorgeous paintings, all of which uniquely express Michael Jackson alone. Shargeeth, Jain and Irfan are the three artists behind this expo. ”I am a big fan of Michael Jackson. I was already planning  an exhibition as a tribute to MJ. And I chose his death anniversary as an occasion for that,” says Irfan, who has drawn the majority of pictures at the exhibition. The moves, the action and the gestures which are all unique to MJ, have been captured in oil paint, charcoal and acrylic paint for portraying.

This is their first art exhibition and Irfan claims that this is the first art exhibition in Kerala, being organised in memory of Michael Jackson. Actor Biyon inaugurated the exhibition. The inauguration was accomplished in ‘Jackson style.’ Biyon shot the glitter papers to the canvas, which already sketched Jackson’s picture with invisible gum, and it made Jackson’s colourful portrait on the canvas with glitters. This reminded most of them of how MJ used to use ‘glitter shoots’ and showers commonly in his music videos and during live performances.  The expo will go on at the Lalithakala Akademi Art Gallery  till June 29.
