The stage is set for the “Visual Translations” art exhibition in the Kingdom of Bahrain. The event is organised by The Daily Tribune and the Indian Fine Arts Society in association with Bahrain Art Hub (BAH).

The Indian Ambassador, H.E. Piyush Srivastava, will be officially inaugurating the event on 20 February at 6 pm. Mr Nayef Al Sherooqi, Director of Human and Financial resources Ministry of Interior, will be the guest of honour.

The paintings will be displayed at The Daily Tribune’s office at Mcindeez Tower in Umm Al Hasam from 20 to 28 February and will be opened for visitors. Bahrain Art Hub is an artist group comprising Indian artists Atamjeet Singh Bawa, Niju Joy, Sagar Adkar, Saira Ranj, Sudeep Deshpande, Tejbir Singh and Bahraini artist Mohamed Taha.

The art exhibition is a compilation of various artists with their individualistic working techniques and approaches towards art.

“The Daily Tribune gives all the artists a great opportunity to show our strength and talents and positively impact the Bahrain art movements,” Taha said.

“I would like to thank The Daily Tribune for supporting and allowing us to show our paintings and believing in us,” he added. The Indian Fine Arts Society, popularly known as IFAS, was established in 1974 and has always been committed to its social obligation of spreading the message of love and brotherhood beyond boundaries through the promotion of arts and culture.

It endeavours to soul-filling music, vibrant classical dances, painting, drama, and other classical art forms. IFAS continues to accept and integrate many cultural events in the best possible way in Bahrain. IFAS has been a pioneer in organising an Indo-Bahrain cultural programme.

It has always been instrumental in bringing world-class Indian artists to this island. In recognition of IFAS’s commitment to promoting classical arts, the Indian Embassy has designated IFAS to represent India at the International Music Festival in Bahrain on several occasions.
