Show, at Radio Club, to be Inaugurated by Shri Uttam Pacharne, Chairman of Lalit Kala Akademi, at 40m on 21/02/2019 followed by lighting of Lamp by Shri Adwaita Charan Gadanayak, Director – General, NGMA

We are doing a First of its kind and unique “Sculpture Exhibition” dedicated only for sculptors, where-in sculptors from all over India and may even from abroad will be having their creations displayed that would attract thousands of visitors. The venue of the exhibition “Radio Club Ground” is an exquisite location surrounded by Arabian Sea on three sides and located at the hub of art fiestas of South Mumbai, where many private art galleries are located. This venue is visible from Gateway of India as well as from Taj hotel, the world-famous landmarks.

We are doing this activity mainly to promote sculptors. It has been observed that very few art galleries entertain sculptors and their art works. This platform in an upmarket and posh locality will provide for an opportunity for affluent buyers in the form of foreign tourists, opulent Art Galleries and random but high-class walk-in crowd visiting the venue because of its stark, absolute and exclusive visibility. The members of the premium Radio Club would be an added advantage.

The setting will give a feel and experience of a Sculpture Park. The participants will be having an opportunity to exhibit their works alongwith renowned sculptors of India Viz. Shri Uttam Pacharne and Shri Adwaita Charan Gadanayak.

There will be an award for best sculpture and the Sculptor will be honoured. Digital certificates will be given to all the participants.
