Art for Land Exhibition
This month, the 5th Art for Land exhibition opened at Unity Pavilion, in collaboration with Auroville Art Service and Acres for Auroville. Until 21 February, a collection of sculptures, paintings, ceramics, photographs, and more offered by Auroville’s artists and well-wishers will be displayed for the community. But more than being a congregation of beautiful artwork in a diversity of styles and mediums, this event aims to inspire donations to secure the lands needed for Auroville’s physical manifestation.
Those who feel drawn to donate to the cause of land for Auroville during the Art for Land exhibition can receive a piece of artwork in appreciation of their generosity. All the artists have suggested a contribution for their pieces and so donors are able to choose a piece corresponding to the donation they feel drawn to give.
Donors can take part in the fundraiser remotely through the http://artforland.in website. The exhibition is there in digital form, with beautiful images ofthe artwork, information about the artists, and their suggested contributions, along with a form for donations
