Bangalore :
The city now has a new cultural adda – Art Park Bengaluru. This initiative launched by city-based contemporary artists will happen on the first Sunday of every month at the Sculpture Garden (Shilpavana) in Ravindra Kalakshetra complex on J C Road.
The first event took place on Sunday where 20 eminent local artists spent the entire day working at the venue to enable art lovers to see, appreciate and understand art. The day-long event gave artists and public a platform to engage in critical conversations to help them develop a deeper understanding of art and artists across time, location and culture.
The activities of Art Park Bengaluru are meant to introduce the local public and tourists to the many art activities that regularly take part in the city and also to bridge the gap between visual art and the public. This initiative is promoted by Samyojita Trust with financial support from the department of Kannada and Culture.
