An Exhibition on Mangalore Heritage Drawings Inaugurated: Will be Open For Public Till May 25

The Mangalore Chapter of the Indian National Trust for Art and Cultural Heritage (INTACH), in association with Art Kanara Trust, has organized an exhibition showcasing the heritage of Mangalore through sketches. The arts have been developed by five artists from Dakshina Kannada, titled “Combing Kudla with Pens and Brushes,”. The exhibition will be open for the public until May 25, 2024, at the Kodialguthu Centre for Art and Culture, G.G. Road, Ballalbagh, Mangalore, from 11 am to 7 pm.

The exhibition showcases the works of five artists: Harish Kodialbail, Jeevan Salian, Santhosh Andrade, Syed Asif Ali, and Wilson Souza. These works were specially created as part of the “Sketching Heritage” project, launched in September 2022 on the occasion of World River Day, to document and preserve the heritage of Mangalore. The collection features spot drawings and sketches from over 40 heritage sites and landmarks of Mangalore. Commemorative postcards and personal notebooks bearing a selection of the sketches are available for sale. Copies of the illustrated booklet, “Chennu: Mangalore City Profile,” are also available.
