Art at a click!
What if you could walk down an art gallery, browsing through artworks of famous artists, pick the piece of your choice and pay much less than its real value — all within the comfort confines of your home?
Acclaimed NGO Khushii has made that possible, twice over, and it’s time for the third edition. ‘WhatsApp Artloot’, as it’s called, is a concept where several artworks and creations of well-known Indian artists are lined up and displayed on a special WhatsApp group. Mind you, participation to this group is by request only. So, if you are an art lover and an avid collector and philanthropist, you’ll be in good company with like-minded individuals.
The categories on display will range between '1 lakh and '5 lakh, on the specially created WhatsApp group called, ‘Khushii’s Artloot’, where all interested buyers will be added. The images will be posted at 11 am sharp on February 27 and the virtual gallery will be open until 6 pm on February 28.
This is how it works — as soon as the images are posted, you could sieve through them, make your choices as quickly as possible, mention the lot number that you wish to book at the number. Khushii office will contact you to complete the rest of your purchase. You could contact Manmeet on 9810885381, if you wish to be a part of this beautiful initiative.
Incidentally, Khushii has recently been awarded the care of 4 government schools in Delhi. With this, the NGO now has the responsibility of taking under their wings the education of 18,000 children. The earnings through your purchases, needless to say, will boost a child’s education!
