## About this event

The Lalithakala Akademi Art Exhibitions represent some of India's most significant platforms for the promotion of visual arts, showcasing a diverse range of contemporary and traditional artistic practices through exhibitions organized by the Lalit Kala Akademi, India's National Academy of Art, and the Kerala Lalithakala Akademi, the state's premier institution for the promotion of painting, sculpture, printmaking, photography, installation art, and other visual art forms. Established to encourage artistic excellence and support professional artists, these institutions regularly organize national, state, and regional exhibitions featuring works by established masters, emerging artists, research scholars, award recipients, and participants in artist residency programmes. The National Exhibition of Art, first introduced in 1955, remains the Lalit Kala Akademi's flagship annual exhibition, presenting outstanding works selected from artists across India and reflecting evolving trends in contemporary Indian visual arts. In Kerala, the Kerala Lalithakala Akademi conducts a wide range of exhibitions, workshops, artists' camps, biennial events, and educational programmes through its galleries and cultural centres. One of its most prominent venues is the Durbar Hall Art Centre in Kochi, a historic gallery equipped with professional climate and lighting systems that regularly hosts large-scale retrospectives, solo and group exhibitions, contemporary art showcases, sculpture displays, photography exhibitions, and artist residencies. The Akademi also organizes exhibitions highlighting works by state award winners, grant recipients, research scholars, and emerging artists, creating opportunities for artistic exchange and public engagement. Beyond Kochi, the Kerala Lalithakala Akademi operates galleries and exhibition spaces in Thrissur, Kozhikode, and Thiruvananthapuram, where rotating exhibitions feature local, national, and occasionally international artists working across a variety of media and artistic styles. These exhibitions attract artists, students, researchers, collectors, educators, and art enthusiasts interested in experiencing India's diverse visual culture while fostering appreciation for both traditional and experimental artistic expression. Through its sustained commitment to exhibitions, education, documentation, and artist development, the Lalithakala Akademi continues to play a central role in preserving artistic heritage while encouraging innovation within the visual arts. Since exhibition themes, participating artists, venues, schedules, workshops, and public programmes vary throughout the year, the respective Akademis announce the complete calendar and visitor information for each exhibition separately.
