Fee: Rs- 100/- http://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=246Date: Tue, 29 Nov 2005 To Thu, 01 Dec 2005 A painter's soul on a canvas. Muhammad Asghar was born in Lahore in 1965. His canvases adeptly capture the expression of his personal inner solace and harmony. The religious intensity with which Asghar exhibits his talent and creative potential exposed itself during his eight years in Saudi Arabia, where a special selection commitee assigned him the monumental task of Naqqashi restoration work in the domes of Masjid-eNabawi in Madinah al Munawwara. An honor not only for the painter but also for Pakistan. Working as a designer in a printing press in Saudi Arabia for most of the time, Asghar continued with his art work on the subject of environment and culutre. Homesickness was the deciding factor when he declined the renewal of his stay permit in Saudi Arabia.

He fills sheets with symbols to suggest messages indirectly. The manner in which he paints also expresses different moods and ideas. In grotesque caricatures, Sohail conveys both amusing and tortured souls simultaneously. The grotesque is indeed the merging of grim and pleasing elements. By placing together opposite sentiments, he creates tension in his image. The intense colours capture the eye , while the scrapes and scratches in the pigment disturb the vision. Thus, the work continually shifts between attraction and repulsion. Tassadaq Sohail resided in England for many years. He had the opportunity to exhibit in Norway and Sweden, among other European countries, where he learned about local legends that he would later incorporate in his art. He currently lives in Karachi and continues to symbolically represent people and places in his inimitable style. http://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=293Date: Fri, 23 Dec 2005 To Sun, 01 Jan 2006 "at the door, between", 2004-2005, is a preview of the works of Afshar Malik. http://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=298Date: Fri, 23 Dec 2005 To Fri, 30 Dec 2005 Three shows daily.

After that, in Safavid dynasty 1503 to 1732 a. C. the use of medallion structure became the most popular compositional principal for Persian Pile carpets. The center of rectangle contains a round shape (medallion) and its corners quarters of the same motif (quarter medallion). Each medallion is accompanied along the the length of the rectangle by a pair of cartouches and one of shield motife. As a result in the medallion composition all other ornaments appear four times on the surface in a horizontally and verticaly mirrored arrangements.

From the time my mother told me to cover myself with a dupatta, I used to be forever taking her Ajrak one. Over the years, I felt that some changes and innovation can be brought into the Ajrak motifs. The repetition of motives and limited color palate needed to be look into. Being a designer I decided to work on it. So, I am working on the motifs of Ajrak with the concept, to break the symmetry of the motifs of Ajrak and bring them out from traditional into contemporary.

Mumtaj Mahal  .... Young Shahjahan Kabir Bedi .... Shahjahan (Aged) .... Aurangzeb Pooja Batra .... Noor Jahan Kim Sharma .... Ladli Begum Manisha Koirala .... Jahan AaraThe brand new Bollywood movie Taj Mahal (and first after decades of ban on Indian movies in Pakistan) is shown at SozoFortress and Empire Cinema. A film review describes Taj Mahal as "..Taj Mahal is Akbar Khan’s magnum opus, it claims of some of most extravagant sets ever mounted, some of the most lavish costumes ever made, some of most of the spectacular and exhilarating battle scenes ever captured, and the most expensive film ever made in India.." However, most reviews claim that the movie leaves a lot to be desired. It falls short on acting, sets, as well as in the storyline. Since the theme of the movie has been done to death, it should have made the movie-makers consider some dynamic sequences or fantastic scenes. Sadly, the viewer only ends up with lots of yawns. However, hopefully better Indian movies will be allowed in Pakistani cinemas. http://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=666Date: Mon, 01 May 2006 To Mon, 15 May 2006 Exciting play for those with passion for local dramas.

The “Public Enemy” in this adaptation is based in a prosperous Northern town. The town is indebted to their doctor-scientist benefactor who discovered the miraculous properties  of their spring water, which became the main source of their prosperity.  But then the hero discovered the  unpalatable truth and was turned into the Enemy. The vested interest, the selfish motives, the double standards, the self-created blind spots, the vulnerability of the weak and the gullibility of the ill-informed. All ingredients of Ibsen’s tragic-hero becoming a villain are present, along with a new factor. The hidden force which tilts the scale against the heroic enemy. “Dushman” is not an unfamiliar story for Pakistan or countries where untruths and exploitation are given divine ideological sanction. Issuing edicts of  being a “kafir”  or infidelity and “Enemy of Islam or State”, is a political weapon frequently used by the religio-political establishments. In most cases the selfish, narrow-minded, gullible majority goes along with such witch-hunting or at least unquestioningly allows the truth  to be trampled and heroes turned into villains.  The Century-old Ibsen question is still unanswered: “Is majority always right”? Collective will and wisdom is a great virtue but shouldn’t we question the established and certified truths every once in a while?  for further information:AJOKA: 6682443,6665021ALHAMRA: 9200917,9200918mail@ajoka.org.pk, ajokatheatre@yahoo.com http://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=1345Date: Thu, 09 Nov 2006 To Mon, 20 Nov 2006 The World Performing Arts Festival is the biggest cultural event of Lahore - hundreds of artists from all over the world gather to perform Music, Dance, Theatre, Puppet Shows and much more in 8 different halls simultaneously.

Play: 'The Trial of Niccolo Macchiavelli'Niccolo Machiavelli finds himself in a strange world. People are sitting in rows looking at him. They are obviously expecting something of him.He remembers that he was ill, very ill. And he has just had a strange experience. As he lay in bed, he found himself floating out of his body, and travelling through a wall, and into darkness. He floated towards a light – and now, here he is. But where?He senses that some kind of testimony is expected of him. He tells of his life as a fourteenth/fifteenth century Florentine. He describes his childhood in an Italy divided into warring city states, leading him to grow into a man for whom politics was his lifeblood.Following the overthrow of the rule of the Medici family, and the installation of a Republic in Florence, he began a career in politics. He built up a citizens’ army – the first in Italy - and he tried to persuade the divided states of Italy to unite against outside aggression.But the Florentine Republic was overthrown and the Medici took power again.Machiavelli recounts how he was imprisoned and tortured. After release, and during many years of enforced retirement, he wrote several books, including the Prince, and comedies for the stage.Several times he has broken off his narrative, gradually coming to realize that he has found himself projected into the twenty-first century. Now, at the mention of his book, The Prince, he discovers, to his horror, the dreadful reputation he has left behind him.His name is now a byword for deceit and duplicity. The Prince, written to lift Italy out of bondage, has been misinterpreted as being a reflection of his own mendacity. This was not how he wanted to be remembered. McEvoy has performed in Lahore already 10 years ago.Hall # 1 http://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=1410Date: Sun, 12 Nov 2006 To Mon, 13 Nov 2006 Sumithra Rahubaddhe from Sri Lanka.

Here in ANTIGONE EMMIGRATION the conflict mixes with the word and the body between her and Creon to transform into a form of the eternal forms of conflict between the man and the super power who tries always to take his liberty . Here we see Oedipus her father and Poliniz her brother come as two witnesses from the world of death ,they come as two spirits presented in the space to say the truth and what is behind it ,changing by there coming the dialog to be a dialog about, liberty ,throne,power and the humanity of the human being.ANTIGONE EMMIGRATION is a human scream against the war ,the blood and the violence every where every time , a final scream of Antigone's soul who looks for another place, another salvation ,a real salvation far from oppression and far from where love is killed every day.And here she is leaving everything back behind her for the sake of a word of truth remembering her father's words: Antigone don’t you ever say yes or even turn face towards any one who doesent see you as you are. Be as an arrow behind your will where no word gets out of your mouth if it wasent a word of truth .Be as you are light and fire It is an invitation to not accept those who are not willing to see us as we are and an eternal searching for freedom every where and every time in relising self- assirtion.

The effects of globalization are at the heart of concerns for leaders and their fellow citizens in most countries, which include the development challenge, promoting cultural diversity, and preserving the environment ......It also effects us in our everyday life and forces us to think about the future in a new light.A collection of 13 documentaries selected by Karina Brun and Patrice Barrat reflect the state of current affairs, in all its complexity, on major emblematic issues, including the economy, health, social concerns, cultural, development environment and international law. They all have one guiding principal considered fundamental and that is diversity.Regardless of their origin, these films tell us that because of globalizations the role of governments has greatly decreased. Faced with this situation, many have looked for solutions to regulate mitigate the effects of a globalization that is often indifferent to peoples needs. Since time is of essence the one sided globalization of recent years has left so many people behind that their only alternative may be to resort to violence to deal with the events that are out of their control. The presentation of these different films in basic categories such as social concerns, development, the economy, health, the environment, culture and law is another way to help others better understand the challenges of globalization.These films, despite the inevitable oversights, have one virtue, it is that they help viewers look at things from another perspective, encourages discussion and fosters a diversity of ideas. Made in different time periods, different places and with different styles, these films are bound to be shown all over the world and people may agree with, doubt or even oppose their message. At any rate, together they will help launch discussion.Please consult the Danka Film Section for details on all flims. http://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=1624Date: Fri, 22 Dec 2006 To Sun, 31 Dec 2006 An exhibition which provides an opportunity for visitors to enjoy the event in a very comfortable and energetic ambience.http://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=1607Date: Sun, 24 Dec 2006 To Wed, 27 Dec 2006 K-OSS @ FREDDY'sUnderground Leatherware All International brands at half the price!24th to 27th December 2006 @ Freddy's Cafe (MM ALAM Rd)Price So Insane We Are Risking A Riot!http://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=1626Date: Mon, 25 Dec 2006 To Mon, 01 Jan 2007 Musical and Comedy Play presented by AA Media International.

Inspired from the works of French philosopher Maurice Merleau-Ponty, the digital works are the key to new spatial perceptions without which the experience of architecture is incomplete. Shifting perspectives––multiple view points––movement of eye in horizontal and vertical planes––this all creates a parallactic sequence where parallax effects are achieved by the overlapping perspectives. . Two digital SLR cameras are used to photograph the Elephant Peer Area of Lahore Fort in different seasons and times of the day in a period of one full year. These images are then superimposed to create the coherent phenomenal experience.By: Adeela Mushtaq and Maryam Fayyaz The invitation can be found here. http://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=1605Date: Sat, 30 Dec 2006 To Sun, 31 Dec 2006 Punjab Lok Rahs is going to perform the punjabi play 'ik raat ravi de' which is directed by Huma Safder at Sahiwal.

Aziz Hasan is a businessman by profession, whose work was first recognized by Ali Imam, icon in the world of fine arts. Inspired by Gulgee, to Sufi poet Rumi, his work reflects his passion for art which gave him the driving force to become an artist. His inspiration comes from divine creations as well as art and architecture. His abstract stroke continues to give birth to forms related to life. Aziz Hasan has a natural feel for color and creates extremely decorative surfaces. A strong element that permeates the work is the artists obvious pleasure in the process of painting. Incidents, impressions, emotions, events, all leave their impact on our mind and soul after viewing Aziz work.Abstraction is a symbolic phenomenon like modern poetry where the artist is absolutely free to express his feeling in any color or shape. Nairang Galleries is pleased to present a solo exhibition of new works by Aziz Hasan, and we look forward for an exciting audience, to appreciate art in any mode and medium.www.azizhasan.com http://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=1611Date: Mon, 15 Jan 2007 To Sun, 21 Jan 2007 The year 2007 was declared the VISIT PAKISTAN YEAR.

At this conference the country and its touristic highlights will be presented and strategies for a booming tourism discussed. http://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=1675Date: Tue, 16 Jan 2007 To Tue, 30 Jan 2007 Career diplomat by day and passionate artist by night, H.E. Mr. Ghassan Muhsin, Ambassador of Iraq based in Bahrain is as dedicated and successful in his artistic endeavors as he is in his profession. He was taught by some of the most well known pioneers of art, Shakir Hassan Al-Sai’d, Ismail Fateh Al Turk & Dr. Ismail Al Sheikhly during his schooling apart from which he has no formal training in the arts, allowing for a freshness in his work that have brought him great success. Three main themes have found their way into his work; calligraphy, architectural and floral motifs and lately collage. Calligraphy is used more in a way of doodling. His influences come from such great impressionists as Cezanne, Matisse, Klee, Klimt, and Gauguin, Monet being his favorite.Ghassan Muhsin’s work is being exhibited in Pakistan after a gap of twenty years. While serving at the Iraqi Embassy at Islamabad between 1981-1986 he held four solo shows and took part in important national exhibitions. His love for Pakistan, its land and people is evident in his work and the latest collection affectionately and appropriately titled ‘Back to Pakistan’ .Colorful scenes rendered with sensitivity speak volumes of  his love for landscape-both urban and rural. His landscapes range from deftly rendered observations to decorative nature based brews, reflecting the great joy and lust for life residing within him. Ghassan Muhsin having no formal training in art is his own teacher and student; this requires discipline and hard work. He trusted his own instincts and applied all the experience and opportunity that his career as a diplomat gave him to observe various cultures, history and art practices that shaped his technique and honed his skill. ‘I can’t deny that in some respects my work affects my art, but in a positive way’, says Muhsin. ‘I turn to my workshop and paint whenever I feel inspired or moved by current events’. That he is proud of his roots and civilization is evident in the fact that he does not imitate or borrow from contemporary art or other cultures but constructs images that reflect his innovation in art enforcing the beauty of his culture, civilization and environment not as a duty or responsibility but more as an identity statement.  Exhibition starts 16th January with innaugaration by the Governor of Punjab.

Those were the artists he could hang out with, and enliven the art scene,’ says Marjorie HusainFrom an interivew from The Gallery Magazine in Dawn... Impatient to savour life, Zoay left his art studies at the National College of Art, Lahore, in 1971, and took the Hippy trail, journeying through Afghanistan, Turkey, on to Germany and many other parts of the world. He hitch-hiked going wherever the drivers took him, over long stretches of land through numerous towns and rural areas. He fell in with groups, met up with characters that put him in touch with others of their ilk in other countries. Three years of a nomadic existence passed before Zoay returned to Lahore in 1974. Here, the National Council of the Arts employed him. With the job went the opportunity to spend time in the Kalash Valley, where he carved forms from blocks of wood and strengthened his belief in the supremacy of nature. His first solo exhibition of sculpture and paintings was held at the Lahore Arts Council in ’74. He stayed around until ’77 and then took off again with everything he deemed necessary for living enclosed in a knapsack carried on his shoulder. Zoay never stayed long in any one place; crossing boundaries and borders as best he could. His drawing skills earned him a welcome in the groups of ‘flower children’ as they were known in those days. He sketched their portraits, and drew impressions of sights that attracted his eye on the trail. http://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=1807Date: Wed, 21 Feb 2007 To Thu, 22 Feb 2007 A terrific oppurtunity for students to learn more about studying abroad.

The play was produced by Yousuf Bashir Qureshi and directed by Ayeshah Alam. ‘Necessary Targets’ is the story of J.S., an American psychiatrist, and Melissa, a war councilor, who help five women in a Bosnian camp come to terms with their memories of war. The play begins with the first meeting between Melissa and J.S. The verbal sparring between the two women continues throughout the play and highlights the difference between them. J.S. (Anna Bertmar Khan) is uptight and preoccupied with the comforts of her Park Avenue life. Melissa (Munizeh Sanai), on the other hand, is an ambitious writer. Her primary reason for going to Bosnia is to record the women’s war experiences for a chapter in the book she is writing. J.S. conducts group therapy sessions with them women, encouraging them to share their experiences of war with her. Melissa always has her tape recorder on during these sessions, much to the irritation of J.S. and some of the Bosnian women.More here. http://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=1813Date: Sat, 24 Feb 2007 To Sun, 25 Feb 2007 Basant, sometimes called Jashan-e Baharaan (lit. Spring Festival) is a festival celebrating the arrival of Spring. It is celebrated by people of all backgrounds. Traditionally, celebrants dress in bright yellow or green, and many people fly kites from rooftops. In the city of Lahore, the festival lasts for two/three days. The Basant festival heralds the end of winter and arrival of spring. It is celebrated in the entire Indian subcontinent, and particularly in Pakistan, with flying kites - perhaps because spring generally brings a clear sky and just the right amount of wind. For its fans, kite flying is pure fun.Best places to go are the areas in and around the old city dor Basant Night in the evening/whole night on Saturday and then of course during Sunday for Kite Flying competitions... http://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=1846Date: Sat, 24 Feb 2007 To Thu, 22 Mar 2007 A fantastic musical comedy brought to you by Silver Sand Paints.

Participants would then go on to look at techniques used to create characters through the body rather than the mind by looking at posture, tension, rhythm and movement. The workshop explores a group of classic theatrical characters called he Archetypes; this will give participants a basic vocabulary of physically-invented characters. Throughout these exercises, actors are asked to perform with their entire body. Once they are comfortable with physical expression that is not reliant on facial-expression or voice, we begin to look at the basic techniques of masks and an audience. At this stage participants will begin to create short devised scenes in mask and explore the interaction between masked and non-masked actors. http://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=1923Date: Mon, 16 Apr 2007 To Mon, 23 Apr 2007 Drama and music festival brought to you by the LAC and Inter Universities.

He disposes of rivals and opponents, though not always in the most obvious ways (one acquaintance claims he had Machiavelli's "The Prince" memorized.) He dumped bodies in rivers, doled out money from the treasury to friends (sometimes having more printed when needed) and bedded other mens' wives. He insituted a short-lived and ill-fated space programme. Over the years he visited with Nixon, Bush and Indira Ghandi, among others. Like his European counterpart, Nicolai Ceaucescu, even at the end he can never quite be convinced of his own unpopularity. He manages to avoid the Ceaucescu's degrading end, and instead succumbs to prostate cancer in 1997.

This Music day allows the expression of all styles of music in a cheerful atmosphere. It aims at a large audience, working to popularise musical practice for young and not so young people from all social backgrounds. It gives an opportunity to communicate and share a very special moment through music.A free and popular eventThe musicians are asked to perform for free, and all the concerts are free for the public. It’s the reason why they are used to play in open air areas as streets and parks or in public buildings like museums, train stations, castles… Furthermore, the Fête de la Musique is a way to encourage the major music institutions (orchestra, operas, choirs, etc.) to perform outside their usual locations. This kind of institutions can also welcome other types of music. In this way it offers an opportunity to develop exchanges between city centres and their outlying areas, to offer concerts in hospitals or in prisons, to promote encounters and exchanges between young musicians and well-known talents.This prorgam will be presented between the 20th and 22nd June in Pakistan in partnership with FM89. Passes would be available one week before at the reception. http://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=2384Date: Sat, 23 Jun 2007 To Fri, 22 Jun 2007 "Saying almost everything with next to nothing is one of the most suprising miracles of Art that only masters can achieve".

The performances of today include wooden puppets dressed in colorful costumes accompanied by songs derived from popular films that the crowds can easily relate to. Men operate the puppets and narrate their stories, while women sing, thereby providing the musical backdrop to the performance.

This is a story of man, who has an obsession for smaller and smaller women, a story of his search to find the smallest one that ever existed. This is a story of the smallest woman on earth, of other perspectives of being and of irrevocable decisions. This is a cruel story of unusual love. This is a story you have never seen before.Krepsko Theatre Group was founded in 2001 and is known primarily for its pure nonverbal improvisations, but the same absurd black humor and poetic playfulness also applies to their fixed performances. The world of Krepsko is painfully human, full of untold wishes and childish joy newly found, where we are led by the language of absurd theatre and fragile clownery.

Her strength lies in building an immediate rapport with the audience, even converting a total layman who has never been exposed to Kathak before.Sharmistha Mukherjee is a highly accomplished Kathak dancer with many years of performing experience. She has received extensive training from three of the most prominent Kathak gurus – Late Pandit Durgalal, Km. Uma Sharma and Shri Rajendra Gangani. Her choreography on the western classical music of Johann Sebastian Bach received a standing ovation during her recent tour in Europe. http://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=2930Date: Wed, 28 Nov 2007 To Tue, 27 Nov 2007 Festival Area: Camp#4 (Puppet / Theatre) WPAF07 - Punarjyot - Kuknoos Bhagat Singh (India) Audience: All Ages “Kuknoos Bhagat Singh” is not just the historic story of the sacrifice of Shaheed Bhagat Singh and his friends, but it also aims to bring up the past as if events were taking place right in front of our eyes. This play reflects the dreams of Shaheed Bhagat Singh merging with the dreams of the elderly people of the village Narli. It questions if we are actually free in today’s society, enslaved by the monster of social evils.       Practising “rural theatre”, Kewal Dhaliwal employs the techniques he learnt at the National School of Drama in India to create productions for rural masses who have long been ignored as “illiterates”.   http://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=2934Date: Wed, 28 Nov 2007 To Tue, 27 Nov 2007 Don Quixote written by Cervantes is said to be one of the greatest spanish revelations of all time.

The performance appears like a nightmare out of the last story in Sherezade’s 1001 nights and presents itself like a dark poetic parable on the guilt of society. Editta Braun Company performances are characterized by an expressive style, and are strongly influenced by theatre and performance, with humor and pathos often walking side by side. They are interwoven with elements showing a commitment to social criticism.  http://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=2940Date: Fri, 30 Nov 2007 To Thu, 29 Nov 2007 Festival Area: Hall#1 (Theatre)Pierrot's Troupe - K.L.Saigal (Ind)It is a revisit to the aura and era of the great K L Saigal.

Very soon these concerns are either grossly diluted or appear to be out of context.  (http://www.mumbaitheatreguide.com/dramas/reviews/numbersin_thedark.asp)http://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=2944Date: Fri, 30 Nov 2007 To Thu, 29 Nov 2007 Festival Area: Camp#4 (Puppet/Theatre)Punjab Lok Rahs - Chalo Chalo Global Village ChaloLok Rahs was formed in 1986 as an “independent alternative theatre group”. Its manifesto states that the organisation was defiant of the “ideological confusions” of the post-Ziaul Haq 90s.

It is a celebration of love, transcending time and space with compassion, humor, and insight. It is also a heartfelt tribute to the original storytellers of yore – the ‘Tarabdaars’ who talked, danced, and sang about ‘the Beloved’, inviting the audience to revel in the true abandon of self-discovery.

Maximilian Berlitz created the Berlitz Method® style of teaching in 1878. This is a HIGHLY EFFECTIVE, CONVERSATIONAL STYLE of teaching. With the Berlitz Method ALL conversation during class takes place in the TARGET LANGUAGE. A NATURAL METHOD of instruction by SPEECH & ACTION is adopted, rather than text book learning. The student learns the language just as a child picks up its MOTHER- TONGUE and the student starts to THINK in the target language.  This is a thirty minute Demo for   Chinese, because it's one of the most difficult languages of the world and it is "the language of the future".

I feel the need to question the role of the forces that manipulate our lives, shapes our beliefs and form our perceptions. Places where exploitation is implanted in the soil and brutality pours from the sky, in these places women in particular and people in general wait for ‘someone’ to come and salvage. My work that includes sewing, mending, joining and tying is a process of hope, hope that may transform callous trends of our time. Have we not been gathering the fragments of our own selves?Do we still need to nurture a deceptive idea of a ‘hero’ implanted by fairytales?………………. “There is no Hero”http://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=3248Date: Fri, 08 Feb 2008 To Thu, 07 Feb 2008 Manga Gujjar Ticket: 40/50 Time: 3:30/6:30/9:30pmhttp://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=3193Date: Sat, 09 Feb 2008 To Fri, 08 Feb 2008 Undiscovered Tomb You lie ..... you die directed by Douglas King produced by Jeremy released by Play Picture Times: 4/7/10 pm http://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=3222Date: Sat, 09 Feb 2008 To Fri, 08 Feb 2008 Exhibition - 23 SAARC [South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation] students are exhibiting their work at Alhamra Arts Council. www.saarc-sec.org  http://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=3190Date: Sun, 10 Feb 2008 To Sat, 09 Feb 2008 Stage Play - Husan Meiri Majburi with NERGIS ....

Vidha Saumya graduated from Sir J.J. School of Fine Arts specializing in Painting in 2005. After a year’s break during which she traveled, did freelance assignments and read, she joined Srishti School of Arts, Design and Technology in July 2006 to study Visual Communication Design. The South Asia Foundation Scholarship was a dream come true for her, because it enabled her to come to the city of Lahore. She is currently on an independent study Program at Beaconhouse National University. She has been in Lahore for 6 months now. Being away from her own country in a new place made her conscious and attentive of what she noticed around her.   What distinguishes the children here from the children elsewhere? She has tried to maintain the nuances of their identity. This particular age group of children interests her the most because they present themselves oblivious of the correctness of appearance. The naivety pulls you towards the stories that surround tem and engages you into a conversation with them.

Asad has skillfully blended colors, calligraphic motifs into a unified statement, creating an ambience of serenity and balance. His skill in manipulating line, color, texture behind exuberant charms and power of forms, reflects aesthetic evolution framed within the technical skills, which excites the viewer and makes his work more interesting yet different.Asad is an artist with flair. Bold strokes, soothing colors and spontaneous expression can define latest work of Asad Faruki. Having great command in line color, texture he successfully comes up with immaculate abstractions. He makes free use of mixed media such as acrylics, oils, collages, transfer techniques that help create brilliant effects. The highly pleasing color palette ranges from deep reds to deep blues and green with touches of bronze and silver. Asad work is a reminder of what an adventure painting can be…Color upon color, collage upon collage in a bold and self assured eruption of expression. Nairang Galleries is pleased to present new works by Asad Faruki and we look forward for an exciting audience to appreciate art in every medium. Curator,Saima Shahhttp://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=3489Date: Mon, 10 Mar 2008 To Sun, 16 Mar 2008 Entry fee is not Confirmed.http://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=3490Date: Mon, 10 Mar 2008 To Sun, 16 Mar 2008 Entry Fee is not Confirmed.   http://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=3317Date: Tue, 11 Mar 2008 To Fri, 14 Mar 2008 ABN-AMRO Pentangular Cup 2007/08Sind v PunjabVenue: National Stadium, Karachihttp://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=3318Date: Tue, 11 Mar 2008 To Fri, 14 Mar 2008 ABN-AMRO Pentangular Cup (2007/08)North West Frontier Province v BaluchistanVenue: Arbab Niaz Stadium, Peshawarhttp://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=3452Date: Tue, 11 Mar 2008 To Mon, 10 Mar 2008 A four day workshop by the Higher Education Commission (HEC) titled "Global Environmental Conflicts, Changes and Adaptation" will commence at the Karachi University campus from Thursday, March 6.

The plot has been written by Meera Syal. Directed by Shah Sharabeel, the current play is an adaptation of the original one in accordance with the local scenario.The story of the play revolves around an ambitious young guide, Aakash, who is brought up by his mother and lives in the slums. He fantasises about being a Bollywood star. The story unknots two Sikhs, Honey Singh and Money Singh, announcing that they will build elite apartments on slum land. Meanwhile, a young lawyer named Vikram arrives along with his fiancée, Priya. He offers his services to save the slums. Priya later offers Aakash a shot in Bollywood and takes him to Mumbai, where he experiences a side of the city he had never imagined. Complications arise as Akaash faces the reality of showbiz, fame, his love for Priya, and his obligations to his family, friends, and his paradise slum. The play beautifully hints at the identity issues confronting human beings. Bombay Dreams is being staged in Lahore for the first time, after enthralling audiences in Islamabad.Director Sharabeel said that the play was one of the most expensive plays put on in Pakistan, costing Rs 3 million. The play comprises a huge cast of 75 characters – 25 female and 50 male artists. “The play has been coloured in a local fashion to make it look like real. Though the play is in English, it proceeds in such a fashion that a person not familiar with English can very well understand it. The actors have been working hard and we hope to have a big crowd in the support,” said Sharabeel. Interestingly, all the actors are from various educational institutions, and none of them is a professional. Students form the Lahore University of Management Sciences (LUMS), National College of Arts (NCA), Beaconhouse National University (BNU), Lahore School of Economics (LSE), Kinnaird College (KC) and Lahore Grammar School (LGS) are participating in the musical. “The play is known for its rhythmic tones composed by AR Rahman and will definitely cheer the audience,” Sharabeel concluded.Information courtesy of Daily Times http://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=3566Date: Mon, 07 Apr 2008 To Sun, 13 Apr 2008 LPC TournamentHandicap Limit: 2-6 Goalshttp://www.lahorepoloclub.com/calendar.htm   http://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=3603Date: Mon, 07 Apr 2008 To Tue, 08 Apr 2008 Dawn Education Expo"Choosing the right degree at the right university can often be daunting.

Widely studied on Drama syllabuses the play moves back and forth through the lives of the women, it sets the enormous social changes of this century against the needs of the individual. "A warm, poignant elegy about growing up, growing old and growing or not growing wise. It's about debts and responsibilities; the grim burden of puritan inheritance; and how it takes generations to learn about the value of real feeling" ~ London Sunday Times  "Humorously and compassionately, the play explores the emotional inheritance each woman receives from the other ... unpeeling the characters to their bones, on occasions with such intensity that I cried" ~ London Guardian  "Totally engrossing, warm, funny, [and] human.... Ms. Keatley refuses to preach about a woman's nature and her place in the world" ~ Manchester England News   "Like Caryl Churchill's Top Girls , this is a play which will influence the next generation of writers" ~ City LimitsThis is this year's A-level annual play for LGS 1A1.

THE PROGRAMPersonal Excellence is a two day program aimed at providing an examination of the key elements of personal excellence. The Schuitema Leadership approach is based on the premise that personal mastery and successful leadership of others are one and the same. You cannot really lead anyone else if you are not in charge of your own life. It is based on the ground-breaking book “Intent – Exploring the Core of being Human” authored by the program facilitator, Etsko SchuitemaDay 1: Introduction* Maturation and Transactional Correctness* Connection between personal excellence and maturity* Relationship between attention and intention* What giving really means* The consequences for the individual and the collective of giving vs. getting* Roots: seeing things as they are and giving everything its dueDay 2: Toolkit* Who am I /Growth Process* Three Attentions* Four Concerns* Six Aspirations* Clarifying ContributionTHE FACILITATOR: ETSKO SCHUITEMA(Pronounced SKATE-ma)Etsko Schuitema is the author of numerous books including “Leadership: The Care & Growth Model”, and “Intent – Exploring the Core of Being Human”. An inspirational speaker, Etsko has taught his unique approach of Leadership and Personal Excellence to audiences all over the world, including an annual program at the University of Cambridge.He founded Schuitema, an "Organizational Transformation and Leadership Excellence" consultancy firm which has been operating since 1989 both in Southern Africa and internationally. Schuitema's work is based on a totally fresh approach that challenges some of the conventional assumptions about leadership and business. Schuitema's approach is driven by its unique Care and Growth model which explores the issue of relationship between personal mastery and successful leadership of others. The Care and Growth model demonstrates to leaders the connection between their INTENT as a human being and their ability to create business excellence.See: http://www.schuitema.co.za/people.asp#EtskoTESTIMONIALS"Etsko’s concepts are very powerful, as embodied in the Personal Excellence framework and these assimilate beautifully with my cultural values and beliefs.

In Pakistan facilities for fine arts, music and theater are virtually absent or minimal in the formal educational institutions, media and environment of Pakistani children. Art for children is not a privilege but a necessity to help them realize their native potential as creative human beings. The average Pakistani child suffers not only from the lack of artistic exposure but also from a more destructive assault of alien and mostly meaningless cultural entertainment delivered by the electronic and print media. At Chitrkar workshop painters, musicians and theatre persons work with children to explore painting, music and theatre that draw inspiration from our local environment and heritage.The three weeks workshop will be held 10 am to 1pm, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday.
