Published from Baroda, the magazine was edited by artists Gulammohammed Sheikh and Bhupen Khakhar until its last issue in 1973. Vrishchik became an active forum for contemporary artistic and literary expressions, and also a catalyst for artists' views about the art field, art institutions and social concerns. The magazine featured an array of content that included poems, stories, critical essays, and folios of printed artworks. This digital copy has been made available by Gulammohammed Sheikh.
