/ -- Pablo Picasso had rightly said, "Everything you can imagine is real." This indeed held true at Chitram - National Level Art Festival of Chitkara School of Art & Design, a constituent institute of Chitkara University. One could see both the artist and the audience absorbed in spectacular works of art, during the 4-Day National Level Festival, which was organised from April 18-21.

The musings of the artist and the art patron found a 'picture perfect' setting in the University's breathtakingly beautiful, sprawling green campus. The event turned out to be, indeed, a celebration of art.

Painting workshops, national seminar on 'Art in Contemporary Society', interaction with students, live demonstrations by noted artists, and finally an exhibition of art works, created during the festival, formed the impressive line-up of events during the art festival. The festival offered artists from a diverse range of interests the opportunity to converge and connect, and share their wealth of experience and knowledge with aspiring artists and enthusiasts. They displayed art in a fascinating and thought-provoking manner, enabling a dialogue between the artist and the viewer.

Galaxy of artists
Mosaic of colours
A twist of imagination
Beauty in the eyes of the beholder, indeed!
On a high note
Speaking about the Chitram Art Festival, Hon'ble Dr. Madhu Chitkara, Vice Chancellor, Chitkara University, said, "The aim of Chitram was to support rich talents and provide art enthusiasts a platform to learn, explore, innovate, discover, focus, reach and achieve - all under one roof. As educators, we aspire to go beyond traditional learning to give our students unique opportunities to blossom."
