Even as Independence Day celebrations have ended in most parts of the city, the joy of true freedom is just beginning to spread in its centre. As the idea of love for the motherland takes off and all the superficial barriers around it dissolve, an upcoming art expo by Gallery Seven Art Limited plans to act as an agent to bring out diverse colours of this feeling. We embark upon an exploration.

Around the world
Through a variety of mediums like art installations, paintings, photographsu00a0 and prints among others, artists from Brazil, Canada, Germany, India, Iran, Pakistan and the United States explore ways in which various dynamic relationships in the political, social and cognitive structures intersect. The participating artists are Hemali Bhuta (India), Ajit Chauhan (USA), Siamak Filizadeh (Iran), Chitra Ganesh (USA), Barbad Golshiri (Iran), Matthias Muller (Germany), Yamini Nayyar (USA), Vijai Patchineelam (Brazil), Srestha Rit Premnath (India/USA), Mahbub Shah (Pakistan), Kiran Subbaiah (India), Jaret Vadera (Canada) and Haeri Yoo (Korea).
