Prelude

GenNext V, this year's show at Aakriti Art Gallery, Kolkata, starts from October 1 and continues till October 21, will feature the latest modes of expression from Painting ,Sculpture, Creative Photography to Digital Prints and New Media other than the latest thoughts in visual expression. It will, as always, go beyond a mere exhibition, and also give a chance to the young artists from across the globe to interact through seminars and workshops.
It is not enough to just create and be, it is also important for similarly inspired minds to interact, exchange notes and be in tandem with whatever is happening around the globe. It is all the more important for artists to be abreast of the latest techniques in the global art scene, the latest thoughts that are sweeping the world at times a lot subtly than what meets the eye. Because, it happens in the mind. GenNext is a forum that encourages young artistic minds from across the globe, to showcase their skills and negotiate contemporary complex issues through their medium of choice. Issues that meet the eye can always be interpreted differently. That is what GenNext is all about the common forum for artists, art collectors, art enthusiasts, critics and connoisseurs, to converge and interact. Going beyond the limit of a physical exhibition and being in touch. Exchange notes that will eventually inspire contemporary art across the globe.
