Indira Gandhi Culture Centre (IGCC) recently hosted a solo art exhibition by Priti Ali titled ‘Power of Pain & Pathos’.

The inauguration of the show took place on 18 March at the IGCC (house 35, road 24, Gulshan 1, Dhaka).

Prime Minister’s International Affairs Adviser Dr Gowher Rizvi, High Commissioner of India Harsh Vardhan Shringla, ambassador of Brazil Wanja Campos da Nobrega, and eminent artist Monirul Islam were present on the occasion and jointly inaugurated the exhibition.

A young painter, Priti has come forward to show her feelings, ideas and thoughts in colours, tones and textures in this solo exposition.

She likes to express herself in abstract and formless identities in informal ways. The perception of subjectivity in terms of human consciousness and cognition has been attempted to be carried out through her creations.

Like all, Priti spends her time with love, hate, joy, melancholy, dream, sorrow, solitude and suffering. These have no visual forms, figures or shapes in particular but inherent subdued perceptions to be felt by the heart. Priti has expressed these formless conjectures in other ways with the help of geometric patterns of dots, lines, squares, rectangles, circles, triangles, seven colours of vigour, tones and textures.

In the exhibition, Priti has skillfully shown the profound human subjective expressions through her brilliant artistic creations.

The exhibition will run till 31 March from Friday to Saturday (12:00 noon to - 8:00pm) and Sunday to Thursday (6:00pm to 8:00pm).
