"Gangaburi - Celebrating the Essence of Buriganga's Heritage" Dhaka, Bangladesh – The Brihatta Art Foundation proudly presents "Gangaburi," an exhibition that intricately blends the rich heritage of the Buriganga River with contemporary artistic expressions. Taking place in the transformed Hazaribagh area, this exhibition is a manifestation of traditions, safeguarding and enlivening the river's narratives. Curated by Shehzad Chowdhury, "Gangaburi" spotlights the works of seven distinguished Bangladeshi artists, Aminul Islam Ashik, Anannya Mehpar Azad, Ahmed Rasel, Kazi Sydul Karim Tuso, Md. Khairul Alam (Shada), Nur A Alaa Siddique, and Shamim Ahmed Chowdhury. Their diverse artworks, ranging from sculptures to installations and paintings, narrate the storied past and evolving present of the Buriganga, capturing its essence and our collective journey with water.

Inspired by the river's profound stories and the song "Gangaburi" by Kafil Ahmed, this exhibition is a testament to the intertwined destinies of our natural heritage and artistic innovation. It symbolizes the deep connection between water and life, echoing the river's role in our civilization and the power of art in shaping environmental consciousness. 

In collaboration with European National Institutes for Culture (EUNIC) Bangladesh, and supported by organizations like Alliance Française de Dhaka, British Council Bangladesh, Goethe-Institute Bangladesh, EU Delegation in Bangladesh, the Embassy of the Netherlands in Bangladesh, and the Embassy of Spain in Bangladesh, "Gangaburi" is a step towards changing our interaction with life-sustaining waterways. This exhibition is an invitation to explore the Buriganga's history, challenges, and prospects for a revitalized future. It demonstrates how art can transform a once-polluted environment into a wellspring of inspiration and rejuvenation. Join us at the Brihatta Art Foundation in Hazaribagh for this unique fusion of art and heritage, where sacred narratives meet contemporary creativity. 

"Gangaburi" is not just an exhibition; it's a communal commitment to rejuvenating the Buriganga, embracing our identity as part of the water cycle.
