The same day the Gallery will be organising an Art Camp sponsored by Planet Art. Art Afficionados might catch a glimpse of well known artists like Devajyoti Ray and Sudip Roy at the camp. Planet Art which has in recent past registered phenomenal growth even in the face of recession in the Art Market deserves all the credit for this wonderful new camp.
From 17th December Planet Art would also be holding a conceptual show of recent works of artists Devajyoti Ray, Manish Pushkale, Anita Singh, Chintan Upadhyay. A must see.
From 27th December, Lokayat Gallery will host an exhibition of Tribal Art forms. The festival will close everyday with the screening of international classic movies. This will include films by cult directors like Akira Kurosawa, Ingmar Bergman, Lui Bunuel, Sergei Eisenstein, etc. Also ther would be a show of a documentary on the life and time of Mulk Raj Anand directed by Sarad Dutt.
