Faiz art prize competition show kicks off at PNCA

ISLAMABAD:20 December: Pakistan National Council of the Arts (PNCA) and Nukta Art hold an exhibition ‘The Post Card to Faiz’ based on the entries received for Faiz art prize competition here today. The competition is an initiative of Nukta Art, Aman ke Asha and Progressive Writers Association (PWA) as part of the Faiz centennial celebrations. The artists create an artwork symbolizing the artist’s dialogue with the poet’s verse, illustrate Faiz’s philosophy and interpret his message for peace, love, justice and fraternity, on a specially designed post card sheet of A4 size with a logo. The idea was to bring together two cultural disciplines visual art and literature. The post cards would dispatch in Pakistan, India and Diaspora, globally and particularly wherever Faiz is extensively read and appreciated. In view of the importance of the occasion and to celebrate it in a befitting manner, PNCA decided to arrange it at the National Art Gallery as a closing event of the Faiz centennial celebrations, 2011. The exhibition will continue till February 5. app.
