Portrait 'Child's Play'
The exhibition, which is curated by Jyoti A Kathpalia from India and August Santiago from Philippines, will be inaugurated by Josel Francisco IGNACIO, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Philippines in India.
In the inaugural chapter of the exchange, Indian delegates had gone to Philippines where Manila unfurled its vibrant tapestry in February 2023, at the World Trade Centre where the exhibition took place.
The guiding principle behind Art Diversity 2024 is to provide a platform for the vibrant expression and interaction of diverse cultures and to ignite profound cultural exchanges through the medium of art. The exchange programme will consist of tours to important cultural and historic sites, art and craft museums of India and cultural programmes. The programme will also have art talks for a stimulating exchange of ideas between the artists, and an art camp for two days where the Indian and Philippine artists will create artworks which will be exhibited.
Sushil Shriwastwa, CEO Arth Art International and the project director said, “It is indeed a matter of great privilege to be undertaking this project. I believe that many more such exchange programmes should be organised as they enable the artists and the countries to foster ties of friendship and bring to light the aspects of care, tolerance and humanity that we all share.”
