The exhibition consisted of craft works on the life and philosophy of Gandhi wherein she has included many craftspersons from different states to showcase their work on either fabric or canvas to depict Gandhi ji ‘ s life and message, his interactions with the villagers etc. Artists from Bengal, Orissa, Bihar and Gujrat have made paintings on canvas and paper and fabrics like Khadi and silk in their own inimitable style- Madhubani, patchitra, Kantha , Warli art (Maharashtra) . They all have shown their respect for the father of the nation in their beautiful paintings which were really a treat to an Artist’s soul. The exhibition was from 5-15 th Oct and was a grand success.
