Some of us at the exhi­bi­tion, orig­i­nally uploaded by anitab­ora.

This is the third exhi­bi­tion in which the Ban­ga­lore Shut­ter­bugs have par­tic­i­pated or put up, in the span of about 6 months.

This one is titled “Paint­ing by Light” and has been organ­ised by Art Mantram Foun­da­tion, a group that works for the pro­mo­tion of cul­tural activ­i­ties in the city. Quite a few Shut­ter­bug­gers were present when the exhi­bi­tion was inau­gu­rated by Anil Kum­ble yes­ter­day evening.

There were other guests who graced the occa­sion includ­ing Rani Satish, ex-Culture and Kan­nada min­is­ter, Lata Bhan­dari, Jija Hari Singh and pho­tog­ra­pher Hel­muth Koenz.

Quite a few pho­tographs were sold dur­ing the first day itself, includ­ing Kaushik B’s beau­ti­ful por­tait of 3 chil­dren, which was bought by Kum­ble. A few other pho­tographs from the lens of Vivek M, Lavan­nya Gora­dia and Shankar S were also bought dur­ing the exhibition.

Got a chance to meet a few new mem­bers of this now bur­geon­ing group. A young enthu­si­as­tic engi­neer­ing stu­dent called Jayant came up to me and said he had joined the group through my blog, and that was really nice.

The exhi­bi­tion is on till April 30, so if you are in Ban­ga­lore, do drop in.

The venue is:
5th Floor, Sona Tow­ers, Miller’s Road.
