New Delhi :  National Institute of Fine Art (NIFA) has organized annual art exhibition of its students “Meet My Soul Mate” at All India Fine Art & Craft Society, Rafi Marg, New Delhi. The 7 day annual event celebrates successful year of its art students, their hard work in all its colour and forms at the well designed cultural space A.I.F.A.C.S.

With this Art Extravaganza, NIFA is providing each upcoming art student an opportunity to exhibit the multi-dimensional and original art works and also welcoming artists, gallerists, collectors, art connoisseurs, the general public etc.

The exhibition is Curated by Renu Khera. She is presenting best works of about 47 students, what they have learnt in one year’s time. These all upcoming artists have created three original art works in different mediums like Charcoal on paper, Acrylic on canvas, Oil on canvas, Water Colour work and Mix Medium work at reasonable price. The aim is to give a platform to all young artists and to make art affordable and accessible to the public and collectors with variable pockets and tastes.

One of the USP of this show is that the students of NIFA has decided to donate 25% revenue of the painting sales for Cancer Patients.

The exhibition was inaugurated by eminent artist Niladri Paul. Apart from him, Renu Khera, Sunil Khera, Parents, faculty staff and many art lovers were seen during the inauguration. All the guests were touched by the works of these students.

NIFA is the foundation for all the students to not only give them exposure but also give them a platform to create a career ahead in future, says Renu Khera. We organize exhibitions for our students every year to give them exposure and platform in the field of art so that they could showcase their hidden creativity. We arrange this annual exhibition for all our diploma students; it’s a part of their syllabus. They get a chance to learn how to face the criticism or appreciation by art lovers. We connect the students to art and culture in the surrounding world so that they get new impulses for inspiration. We give them a chance to depict their imagination on paper through colours and textures, says Renu Khera.

She further added, this is an exhibition cum sale show open for the public and the media to enable the visitors to interact with artists and experts on a single platform. Besides collectors, connoisseurs, artists, dealers, experts, gallerist art enthusiasts, hospitality businesses and corporate houses from the business hub in Gurgaon, Delhi and elsewhere have all been invited to partake of the important artistic highlights.

Niladri Paul said, I’m amazed to see the work, it shows the creativity and deep intensity of their thoughts. Irrespective of age they are able to express their imagination very strongly and I hope they will certainly make it big in future. He asked all the artists to keep learning and move forward in life.
