Prime Minister Narendra Modi on December 8 said that India’s re-emergence to a pre-eminent position in the field of art and architecture will benefit all of humanity, while adding that his government was working to institutionalise global cultural initiatives.
To this end, India was working to develop a modern system on the lines of similar cultural events in cities like Venice, London and Sao Paulo, Mr. Modi said while inaugurating the first India Art, Architecture, and Design Biennale (IAADB) 2023 at the Red Fort.
“The India Art, Architecture, and Design Biennale is a celebration of our country’s diverse heritage and vibrant culture. Such programmes should get a global identity as similar events in some of the world cities,” he said.
