For serious art collectors, the process of editing their collection is as emotional an affair as it is to add. Anjani Kumar Singh, a prolific and avid art lover, who is the force behind the truly international Bihar Museum holds an art exhibition titled Plural India at Visual Arts Gallery from 18th to 23rd October. Also launching a book titled  Plural India authored by Dr. Alka Pande on the occasion, he views the shows as a means to raise funds for his art school and center titled Arpana Kaur Centre for the Arts.

A well-curated show of artists from Bihar, Kolkata, and the 24 Parganas, the show will feature works of Suhas Roy, Lalu Prasad Shaw, Sunil Das, and Arpana Kaur amongst others. ” It is a reflection of plurality in the art that is reflective of the reigning influences of contemporary Indian art.” Above all the retired bureaucrat hopes to raise funds to be able to run his art center and school. Shares senior artist Arpana Kaur, ” Not only is it flattering but also humbling that Anjani Ji has named his center after my name. He is a true democrat who believes that should be made available to all. His initiative is applaudable.” 
Art aficionados can look forward to viewing some of the rarest works of masters that this keen-eyed collector has accumulated over the years.
