Since its launch on October 9, 2020, our art blog ensured that art lovers did not lose touch with the world of art during the pandemic. In our selection of artists and their representative works, we have made a conscious attempt to not only exhibit art that meets the highest aesthetic standards but, equally importantly, we have included art that is meaningful and has deeper social relevance. This is therefore a show with a difference. We feel confident that the viewers will find resonance with the works on display at An Imaginal Affair and will simply love the show."To provide access to more works over a longer period, it has planned to present an online exhibition from October 1031, 2021, with the addition of another ten artists.
