Kiran
Nadar Museum of Art invites you to
ELITIST
The Heritage Art
On 26th
and 27th January 2019
In colloaboration
with Archaelogical Survey of India, KNMA has organized art workshops at well
known heritage sites and monuments.
Art is anything
but ‘elitist’ and KNMA aims to bridge this gap between the art and general
public through their various art interactive programs like these workshops at
various heritage sites throughout the nation. The Heritage Art
project will help raise awareness and foster interest
for art in the public eye. The main purpose of conducting these workshops would
be to sensitize the visitors towards Indian art and culture. To encourage
everyone to join in, KNMA plans to organize the workshops on weekends. The
Heritage Art project will begin with Delhi on January 26th & 27th at
Qutab Minar and Humayun Tomb, respectively. The other cities include Lucknow,
Bhopal, Guwahati, Dehradun and Shimla.
KNMA is plugging
the lack of art promotion in the public sphere and is working towards
encouraging art appreciation. KNMA aspires to become a place for confluence,
through its curatorial initiative and exhibitions, school and college
workshops, art appreciation discourses, symposiums and public programs. It is
focused on bridging the gap between art and the public and fostering a
museum-going culture in India. In order to activate the museum as a site for
visual and intellectual dialogue, the museum aims to develop innovative
programs that seek active collaborations from artists as well as the public.
