For the first time the organizer invited artists from out of
Asia. Previously artists from Asia were took part in this art exhibition. But this time artists from out of Asia also joined to participate.
“We invited
artists from out of Asia for the first time. Because we want to connect the
culture with one another. And we are looking forward to arrange it
internationally in future,” he added.
The main aim
of this art exhibition is to make relation between the artists from different
countries.
"If we can’t
make combination with culture then freedom of humanity will not come. There are
a lot of countries which are economically rich but not cultured. But there are
a few countries which are cultured. Because they did revolution of culture and renaissance.
Without revolution, a nation can be developed but not cultured," he also added.
Artists are finding so many opportunities after joining the exhibition. They are sharing their thoughts regarding arts with each other. And they are knowing about the culture and arts of different countries.
