Wild & Wonderful In Ahmedabad
Online Exhibition Hosted By LLL
We were very pleased to be able to launch our first virtual
exhibition at the library on Wednesday 3rd of June. There
was a great “crowd” at the opening and thank you to those
of you who joined us. The exhibition remains open until 15th
June and we welcome you to come any time. We would be
very happy to receive your feedback. This is an exciting
engagement with new technology for us which we will be
developing with each exhibition. We have been working on
bringing Art into the Library for some time. Look out for
more of these shows in the future.
We are most grateful to Amitbhai Ambalal who has so
generously shared his collection of recent sketches and
collages that he has been working on during this time of
isolation. Luckily for him his Ahmedabad studio is in a
garden where he can engage with nature and be inspired
by the animals who visit and by those that he remembers.
We hope this work will inspire you to look at the world round
you with new and curious eyes. His collages are particularly
refreshing in their use of discarded art work and the
