Aligarh April 1: An Art Exhibition by Hobbies Workshop, GEC, Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh was organized at Kennedy Auditorium Foyer in collaboration with the OCTA (a group of eight students from Fine Art Department, AMU). The special feature of the exhibition is installation called "EMPATHY" which concerns the patho-ontological condition of a rickshaw puller. The other works on display vary from formalistic experimentation, romantic expressionist gestures, confessional portraits, calligraphy, miniature and assemblage. Prof. A. M. K. Shahryar, noted poet and lyricist was the Chief Guest of the programme.
The show is dynamic in the sense that it touches various genres and mediums of visual art from conventional painting, assemblage, photography and installation. The Exhibition, hopefully, would encourage the students of Fine Art and inspire more visibility of such art related activities in the campus. The Exhibition comprises the paintings of Aasia Wahid, Amit Kumar, Rusnee Susaro, Shabina Parween, Afzal Ahmad, Nikhat Noor, Sabiuha Jameel and Surida A-Sae. The paintings of guest artist Ruby Khawaja, Mumtaz and Shahejahan were also found enchanting to the viewers.
Prof. Abul Kalam Qasmi, Coordinator, General Education Centre welcomed the guests while M. Shahbaz Hussain, Student Convener of the Exhibition proposed a vote of thanks.
