Kolkata, Mar 6 (IBNS): Kolkata's art gallery Akar Prakar is going to host an exhibition named 'Aarambh' on the recent works of artist Sayed Haider Raza.

The exhibition will be on display from Mar 7 to Mar 28. During the exhibition, the gallery will be opened from 2 to 7 pm except Sunday.

Raza was present at the gallery on Wednesday to inaugurate the exhibition.

Opening the show, S H Raza told IBNS that the government and the media should promote arts to take it to a higher level.

"The Government should organize many exhibitions on modern arts in the metro cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata etc to make an idea about modern arts in the minds of this generation. I had lived in France for 50 years and observed many exhibitions there on modern arts," he said.
