An Art Show by 62 Artists

The Big Picture Art, Artists, India Foundation for the Arts is an Art show to raise funds for India Foundation for the Arts (IFA). This art exhibition and sale has been made possible by 62 artists who have offered to donate-in part or full-the proceeds from the sale of their 72 works to IFA. This is the first time so many artists have come together to support the arts.

The show is being curated by Mr Abhishek Poddar.

The launch of The Big Picture-Art, Artists, India Foundation for the Arts (IFA) was held at the ITC Windsor on the 4th of April. This is the first time that so many artists came together in support of the Arts. The event was attended by over 150 Art enthusiasts and collectors. At the event Mr Anmol Vellani, Executive Director for IFA spoke about IFA's work and how this initiative by the artists would support IFA's grant making. Mr Atul Dodiya opened the exhibition by donating his work of watercolour on paper Godown (2008) to IFA.
