“The Lands for Auroville are to be bought and can be bought.
The Money is needed, will you help.”
-The Mother
We welcome you to participate in this summer’s Art for Land Exhibition which will take place in August, at the Unity Pavilion, to conclude Sri Aurobindo’s 150th birth anniversary celebrations. The theme for the exhibition is:
Individual and Collective – Auroville – Moving Forward Together
We are grateful to each one of you who, over these last years, has supported the Art for Land Exhibitions through your solidarity. We warmly invite you to participate once again by generously donating artworks for this year’s Art for Land Exhibition – Agust 2023.
Please visit our Art for Land website www.artforland.in where you can follow the display of artworks which are now available for viewing and online sale throughout the year. Artworks and information are also available at our Art for Land Boutique outlet at the Unity Pavilion. On the website artist descriptions, you can also see if you would like to have more information or social media contacts, etc. added to your profile. Art for Land is part of a flow of generosity to secure the lands for Auroville, and part of our initiative is to showcase Auroville and Pondicherry as a center for artistic creativity – so if we can help in creating visibility for you, our participating artists, we are very happy!
The 2023 AFL Exhibition will be inaugurated at 11am on Sunday, 13th August 2023
and toward that, the artworks need to reach us between 5th to 25th July 2023, so that framing and curating can be completed in time.
If possible, please bring your artworks directly to the Unity Pavilion or if they need to be picked up within the Auroville/Pondicherry area contact us at: unitypavilion@auroville.org.in or (+ 91 413) 262 3576.
As much as possible, we prefer to receive works unframed.
We have full framing capacity of up to
S: 40cm X 60cm M: 60cm x 80cm L: 90cm X 70
The Land for Auroville needs to be secured and the Art for Land initiative has been an important support for this goal. Fundraising and contributions for the land are the only sources for consolidating Auroville’s designated Master Plan area. AFL’s sale and events proceeds as always all go to the Acres for Auroville land campaign for purchase of the City of Dawn’s still-missing land.
Looking forward to your wholehearted participation, and with all our gratitude for your support,
The Art for Land Team, Unity Pavilion
in collaboration with the Acres for Auroville campaign
