"IND–BEL–ART" exhibition

On August 15, 2017 at 5 o’clock, the Day of celebrating the 70th anniversary of independence of India, the National Historical Museum of the Republic of Belarus will officially present the "IND–BEL–ART" exhibition.

In February 2017, a group of Belarusian artists (Grigory Sitnitsa, Yuri Hilko, Daria Buneeva and Vera Yagovdik) made a creative tour of India. Hosted by the Embassy of India in the Republic of Belarus, ICCR (Indian Council for Cultural Relations) and the Belarusian Union of Artists, the program was timed to the anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between Belarus and India.

During the trip, the artists visited the capital of India, New Delhi, and also the regions: south of the country, the city of Kochi (Kerala), the west (Mumbai, Aurangabad), etc. The program included visiting the most iconic architectural monuments (Taj Mahal, Ellora Caves, Ajanta Caves, etc.), museums, galleries, educational institutions of art education, as well as meetings with Indian artists.

The result of the trip is the "IND–BEL–ART" exhibition, in which artists–participants of the program show picturesque works made under the impression of their journey. Also, there are items that the Embassy of the Republic of India in the Republic of Belarus provided to the exhibition: saris, figurines, cups, etc.
