ISLAMABAD, Aug 24 (APP): Pakistan National Council of the Arts (PNCA) Wednesday held an art exhibition “Scenic Pakistan”, to celebrate 75th independence of Pakistan.
The show includes art pieces from National Art Gallery’s permanent collection which have never been on display before and are coming together to make this show even more special, a PNCA official told APP.
He said the exhibition was a splendid opportunity to understand Pakistan’s landscape and how each region varies from one another. Each artist has a different practice along with their distinct visual language projected in their work, he added.
