Anjolie Ela Menon has been
nominated on the board of trustees of the Indira Gandhi National Centre
for the Arts, the only visual artist to have been.
Here's what she has to say about
her objective in accepting this new responsibility:
| "My aim in serving
on this trust is to build upon the great work that's already been
done specially in terms of scholarship and the collection of material which
is of national importance culturally.
I would also like to help in whichever way I can in the speedy implementation of the building plans. It would also be my humble endeavour to add to the credibility of this institution by ensuring a greater interface with the public and the contemporary practitioners in the field of the arts, so that the activities associated with the IGNCA are more participatory in nature." |
