New Delhi: – Dr. Sandeep Marwah, a globally recognized media entrepreneur and the President of Marwah Studios, inaugurated the prestigious art exhibition titled “DemArtcracy”, held at the American Center, an integral part of the American Embassy in New Delhi. This distinguished event was organized by Dr. Meenu Kumar of Cosmo Art India Gallery in collaboration with the GTTCI.
In his keynote address, Dr. Marwah, also the Chancellor of AAFT University and the founder of Noida Film City, highlighted his longstanding association with the United States. He reflected on his extensive contributions as the Chair of the Media & Entertainment Committee for the Indo-American Chamber of Commerce and as the Chair of the Indo-American Film and Cultural Forum.
“I have always believed in the power of art and culture to bridge gaps and foster deeper ties between nations,” remarked Dr. Marwah. “My collaborations with the United States date back several decades, including my inclusion in President Bill Clinton’s special agenda during his visit to India and hosting First Lady Laura Bush at Noida Film City.”
Dr. Marwah also took a moment to express his heartfelt concern regarding the devastating fire that recently struck Los Angeles, a hub of creativity and artistic expression. He underscored the critical role of art and culture in connecting nations and fostering mutual understanding.
The exhibition “DemArtcracy” serves as a vibrant platform showcasing the interplay of art and democracy. Following the inaugural ceremony, a panel discussion was held on the theme “India-American Relations Through Art.” The discussion brought together experts, artists, and diplomats to deliberate on how cultural exchanges can strengthen bilateral ties and mutual respect between India and the United States.
The event witnessed an enthusiastic gathering of diplomats, artists, art enthusiasts, and members of the media. It served as a testament to the enduring relationship between the two nations and the pivotal role of art in shaping diplomacy and cultural dialogue. Dr. Sandeep Marwah, known for his relentless efforts in promoting cultural diplomacy, concluded the event by emphasizing the importance of fostering collaborations that inspire creativity and unity on a global scale.
