Tagore Exhibition

      
On May 09, 2010 the Prime Minister of India, Dr. Manmohan Singh addressing in the inauguration of the exhibition, "The Master's Strokes: Art of Rabindranath Tagore"  at National Gallery of Modern Art in New Delhi said, "For Tagore, art  (and literature)  was the bridge that connected the individual with the world at large." 

As a matter of fact, Tagore, the first non-European to get honoured with the Nobel Prize for literature was a philosopher, a journalist, a painter, a composer, A Citizen of His Country and of the Universe, A Renaissance Man, An Educator with a Difference... that is, a Man of Letters in the true sense of the term. His pen did not spare any genre be it short story, novel or Drama.

Through the video above, an attempt has been made to acquaint our students with some of the  great works from the pen of a Great Author called Gurudev Rabindranath Tagore..
