For latent talent

With over 55 artists ranging from the ages 19 to 80, the curators Abha Kapoor and Shail Singh have come a long way from their first exhibition in Ludhiana. “The art world has changed for the better. People are recognising Indian artists across the globe. Any new artist with creativity has a chance to be promoted by art galleries,” says Abha. “Art collectors too want to catch them young,” adds Shail.

Both Abha and Shail point to young art collectors who want to invest in art and look for promising works by young artists.

The exhibition will be inaugurated by Dr Daniel Gustafson, FAO representative in India and Bhutan. A percentage of the proceeds will go to UNWA to support underprivileged pre-school children. “We believe in promoting upcoming artists,” says Shail. Here’s a venue that must be visited if you are interested in art.
