Various art techniques and mediums like Pen- n- Ink, water colour, pencil, charcoal and crayon drawings, NoPaint Images (an innovative technique) etc. have been executed by different artists in their works put on display in the exhibition.
The purpose of organizing a show, entirely dedicated to black & white art works, is to revive the mediums in long tested visual expressions used by our ancestors to express and share their views. Further Black & White works are not involved in details which create diversions in the imagination of the viewers. The third view in this regard is that while viewing Black & White visuals the viewer merges his ‘imaginative fill ups’ to complete the visuals according to his wish.
The three organizations have organized many national and international level art exhibitions and art workshops at SPPAA in the past also. The exhibition will remain open up to 10th June, 2019 daily between 11 AM and 5 PM.
