The Sublime Galleria – A Plethora of Artists and Creative Ventures

Leave a comment

India’s first Sky Gallery, Sublime Galleria is a dynamic meeting ground for upcoming artists, art connoisseurs and buyers. Founded in 2009, Sublime is a renowned platform for the promotion of diversity and innovation in art.

Bangalore, India, September 20, 2013 — The Sublime Galleria is a dynamic meeting ground for upcoming artists, art connoisseurs, and buyers. It is India’s first Sky Gallery, and was founded in 2009 by Ms. Uzma Irfan, Executive Director of Corporate Communications at the Prestige Group. Having hosted several successful exhibitions in the past, it is recognized as a launch-pad for upcoming artists who represent a cross section of styles, media, techniques and forms that define today’s artistic sensibilities. Sublime Galleria is on a mission to further the cause of the arts and also sees itself as a dynamic crucible for the next generation to develop and showcase their talent. It reaches out to upcoming artists and offers them a platform to showcase and make their body of work accessible to the art lovers of Bengaluru. Sublime also organises regular workshops for children in various creative and artistic fields like music, painting, drama, dance and more. These workshops are conducted by international experts and offer the kids an opportunity to develop their skills and augment their knowledge in their chosen area of creative expression.

One such workshop is ‘Berserk’, an art conference for children between the age of 8 and 12 years. Through a series of rigorous auditions in the chosen city schools, a set of 60 students were shortlisted to take part in the 3-day residential conclave aimed at promoting and encouraging creativity and talent. At the grassroots level, this is a 3-day residential art conference with expert mentors from Jagriti, Lourd Vijay Dance Studio, Taaqademy and 3 Peel. Selected children of different verticals received endorsements ranging from intensive training programs to working on productions under expert guidance. The endorsements are custom-designed by each of the vertical heads. The event is conceptualised to be a stepping-stone for the children to nurture and pursue their creative talent.

Another event that stood out for its generosity and spirit was Melange, a group art exhibition where over 20 established and emerging artists came together in aid of the Indian Society for Performers and Teachers of Dance (ISPTD). The Society offers underprivileged children an opportunity to train in dance, thus taking them one step further towards realising their dreams. The artists who have contributed an artwork each to this worthy cause include Bheemaraya Devikeri, Mahesh Pattar, Ruchika Motwani, Shibu Arakkal, Triveni Vinod, Konda Srinivasa Rao, Vivek Rao, Dnyati Wagh, Neena Vaishampayan, Swati Pasari, Elena-Renee Pereira, Sonu Mulchandani, Milind Nayak, Sujata Sah Sejekan, S.A.Vimalanathan, Pragya Jain and Bhavana, among others.

Sublime strives to showcase works that reflect innovation. The Exhibition ‘Genesis’ by avid filmmaker and artist Simran K.S. Lamba, revealed the conceptualisation and assimilation of a new medium – ‘Coal Tar’. Sonu Mulchandani’s ‘The Voyage’ was a rare collection of maps and memorabilia that resonates the Gallery’s commitment to promoting creativity. One of the most recently concluded exhibitions ‘The Reflective’ by Elena Pereira was a spectacular amalgamation of a multitude of materials, ranging from flowers to metal.

Art Bengaluru, has grown over the last 4 years to become one of the biggest art festivals of South India. A joint initiative by Art Chutney and Sublime Galleria, Art Bengaluru brings together art of all forms every year. This year’s event was noted for the Galleries featured, ‘Berserk’, the Luxury Art Auction, and the artsy atmosphere it set across Bengaluru.

Without the support of the art community and the diversity Bengaluru enjoys, Sublime believes its efforts to promote art would not have materialised. Sublime will continue in its endeavour and would love for all of you to support its initiatives for the fine arts.

LaPorte, IN, September 19, 2013 – Nick Bello of LaPorte, Indiana has built home based businesses for over 16 years. He recently resigned from his former company to partner with LifeVantage. After 16 years of helping people build successful home based businesses in all 50 states and 18 different countries, Nick Bello is excited about the LifeVantage products and the timing of the company.

Nick Bello is confident that LifeVantage gives the average person a real shot at success.

Although not every year was as successful as others for Nick Bello in the network marketing industry, he felt like this industry was his opportunity to not only do something great for himself and his family, but help others as well. Nick Bello has had tremendous support from his wife which he calls “His Foundation.” “When I started in this industry at 22 years old, I had so many people tell me it wouldn’t work. I was living in a 2 bedroom apartment, driving a rusted 1983 Cutlass” states Nick. His journey through the years has changed his lifestyle dramatically. Still living in LaPorte, Indiana, Nick Bello as well as his wife and three daughters now enjoy a large home and luxury vehicles. More so than what Nick Bello has accomplished, he is proud of the lives he has impacted in a positive way through his journey.

NanoMarkets Announces Release of New Report, “Worldwide Medical Polymer Markets 2013-2020”

Leave a comment

The report titled, “Worldwide Medical Polymer Markets 2013-2020” identifies the current and future opportunities in the medical polymers space and provides guidance on the technical and regulatory framework in which these opportunities are arising.

Glen Allen, Virginia (September 19, 2013) — According to a new report from industry analyst firm NanoMarkets, the global medical polymer market will grow from $2.3 billion (USD) in 2013 to over $3.5 billion in 2018. The report titled, “Worldwide Medical Polymer Markets 2013-2020” identifies the current and future opportunities in the medical polymers space and provides guidance on the technical and regulatory framework in which these opportunities are arising.

The report also includes granular eight-year forecasts and an analysis of the complete supply chain for medical polymers. Firms addressed within the report include, Bayer MaterialScience, Celanese, Dow Corning, Dow Chemical, DSM, DuPont, Eastman Chemical, Evonik, Solvay and others.

Details about the report are available at: http://nanomarkets.net/market_reports/report/worldwide_medical_polymer_markets_2013_2020.

From the Report:

Implants currently consume about half the medical polymers produced and are expected to account for around $1.6 billion in polymer sales by 2018. Polymers have been penetrating the implant market because they are lower cost and lighter weight than metal alternatives, such as titanium. The report also indicates that increased use of medical imaging is creating further demand for polymers.

According to the new NanoMarkets report, sales of polymers for diagnostic systems will reach $1.04 billion in 2018. In vitro diagnostics account for 50,000 to 60,000 metric tons of specialized and commodity plastics every year. Most diagnostic procedures today are rapid, multi-assays, and plastics have become indispensable. The growth prospects in this sector are thus particularly strong.

The report claims that PMMA, PS/styrenics, and PP are the leading medical polymers based on revenue accounting for around 26 percent of the market in 2013. There are also some high-value niches appearing in the market. Commercial elastomers that provide a “soft touch” are being used to coat accessories, such as catheters, gloves, and syringes, in order to impart a soft touch feel. Their use is expected to grow in intravenous drug delivery systems, cardio systems, and blood collection devices.

The last decade has seen the rise of biodegradable polymers. The current trend suggests that in the near future, entire prostheses will be developed from these materials. While they will not be used to manufacture diagnostic products, biodegradable polymers will be incorporated into implants and some clinical labware. There is some additional interest in discovering new biodegradable polymers for medical applications, but investment in this area is limited due to the need to complete extensive long-term studies in order to validate new materials.

About the Report:

This new report provides the necessary strategic insight into how the polymer industry can best generate new business revenues in medical applications and where the medical device industry can expect polymer materials to make their greatest impact. This report which polymers are likely to do best in the medical environment. This study also contains detailed eight-year forecasts in volume (Kg) and value terms.
