While agreements related to civil aviation and hydroelectric power are being drawn to strengthen bilateral ties between India and Bhutan, a short distance from the political offices, a celebration of relations between the two countries will take place through photographs at the National Gallery of Modern Art.
Coinciding with the visit of the King of Bhutan, Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuck, will be an exhibition that will trace the history shared by the neighbours. Besides archival photographs, photographic work of the king of the Himalayan kingdom will also be on display.
“Both countries share a special friendship,” says Pramod Kumar KG, who conceived the show with Namita Gokhale. “The exhibition will include several archival photographs that have never been exhibited before. This would be the first time images clicked by the king will be exhibited.”
