Art 2020 : New Stage for Artisans


What is Art 2020

Culmination of the art movement started in Bhopal more than two decades back, ART2020 is a space for experimentation, regional, national and international exchanges, and dialogue in the visual arts.

ART2020 is a unique group of painters, sculptors, graphic artists, classical musicians, poets, and writers dedicated to their respective mediums of artistic self-expression, while coming together to not only offer a bouquet of visual art offerings, but also aiming to promote cross-cultural, and cross-media experimentation and exchanges. Through our programming we aim to assist and develop forms of visual arts, while helping the society to look at the works of modern art with greater joy, understanding and knowledge by extending their relationship with our daily life and experiencing them as vital expressions of the human spirit.

Aims and Objectives:

International artists through production, exhibition and dissemination.
