To mark UN Day in India, UNIC New
Delhi commissioned eight contemporary artists to present their vision of the
MDGs. Responding to UNIC’s call, eight eminent Indian artists created sensitive
images to highlight the MDGs.
Based on their works, UNIC
developed a series of posters as well as a folder of prints of the images,
launched at a press conference. The works were displayed at UN House on UN
Day during our annual reception, and moved to a popular gallery for the
following week.
The artists are contributing 50
per cent of the proceeds from the sale of their works to fund UN development
projects in India. The initiative offered another opportunity to catalyse
action towards meeting the Goals in India.
