In a celebration of artistic collaboration and cultural exchange, 21 foreign and Indian artists have converged at DAV University to showcase ‘ArtEco’, an International Socio-cultural Art Project. The six-day endeavour, comprising workshops and an exhibition, will conclude on Wednesday.
As a highlight of the project, the talented artists offered live demonstrations of their work, culminating in a grand exhibition here on Tuesday. ‘ArtEco’ stands as a unique cultural celebration, featuring the participation of Russian artists, underscoring the event’s global appeal.

While inaugurating the event, Dr Manoj Kumar, Vice-Chancellor, DAV University, commended the artists for their dedication to both ecological preservation and heritage conservation. He said that ‘ArtEco’ would not only serve as a platform for artistic expression, but also as a catalyst for cultural exchange.
