ABOUT THE SHOW
 
The exhibition thus displays the dynamic synergy that exists between those who are shunned and isolated by society due to their intellectual disability and those who are loved and revered by society for their artistic genius. The former make the canvas for the latter who further develop it into a thing of beauty.

The art show will also see the participation of Patuas from Kalighat. The Patuas are painter-story tellers who present mythological stories and folklore in paint and paper. Another attraction of the exhibition will be French filmmaker Cedric Labourdette who will be presenting a film made by him using artistes from Prabhat Special School.
Through the exhibition, SCD is seeking to provide exemplary models of education and employment to those with intellectual disabilities. The show will take off on Saturday evening with the inaugural lamp being lit by some of the children studying in Prabhat.
