The Masters in Fine Arts (MFA) final year on-campus students of the Indira Gandhi National Open University’s (IGNOU’s) School of Performing and Visual Arts (SOPVA) showcased their talent by organizing five day ‘IGNOU Annual Art Exhibition 2012’ at the India Habitat Centre in the national capital.
14 students participated in the exhibition and painted their mind on the canvas. The paintings were available for sale. Vice Chancellor, Prof. M. Aslam, IGNOU, visited the exhibition and lauded their talent. He expressed that there is no better instrument than the works of art for transmitting the legacy of the past to the future generations and inculcating a wide interest among them especially the youth in every field of endeavour – artistic, intellectual and social.
The VC interacted individually with every participant as they explained him their masterpieces and in a testimonial diary wrote, “It was educating to interact with the future artists who are full of ideas and enthusiasm. I am confident about their bright future.”
Prof. Sunil Kumar, Director, SOPVA, felt that this exhibition is to focus on areas of knowledge and professional specialization. It is the first effort of the university to showcase the work of art of the students of MFA Painting to the art world.
