International Links

Every first fortnight from November 1997 to 2001, International Institute of Fine Arts sponsored an international artists’ workshop in Sikri Bagh, Modinagar. Each workshop had nearly two dozen participants of which twelve were from India and twelve from across the globe. By virtue of this about five dozen international artists from Australia, Austria, Canada, China, Cuba, Israel, Japan, Kenya, Namibia, Netherlands, Pakistan, Poland, South Africa, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, Thailand, Trinidad & Tobago, Uganda, United Kingdom and United States of America worked intensively together - exchanging ideas, encountering varied methods and approaches and striking out in new and experimental directions. We, at the Institute, had the privilegeof hosting these artists and for the students and staff it was, indeed, an enriching experience.
