Title
International Gallerie
Description
International Gallerie was conceived by one person’s simple, single-minded belief in the rich, diversity of the world’s cultures and the powerful universality of ideas. In an increasingly cynical world, the idea captured the imagination of a core group of people comprising design and print professionals, photographers, writers… and advertisers. Encouraged by this support, its founder-publisher and editor, Bina Sarkar Ellias, launched the first issue of International Gallerie in July 1997. That issue was an instant success – not in numbers, but in terms of its quality of readers. The inaugural issue and subsequent issues went on to win no less than 9 national and international awards for excellence.
What began as an arts and literary journal that focused on creative excellence worldwide, soon evolved into a socio-cultural forum on global issues –– stringing art, music, theatre, cinema, poetry and travel into a cohesive theme.
Opposing violence, for example, in the third issue. Or believing in a world without divides––race, caste, ethnic –– in the fourth. The fifth issue was dedicated to the War Child. The sixth to Freedom and Censorship. The seventh issue was dedicated to the much-needed bridging of divides between India and Pakistan. The eighth issue critiqued Beauty–preconceived notions and stereotypes. The ninth issue, an exploration of cultural links between France and India. The tenth, a response to 9/11 & Gujarat, people & places in conflict. The 11th issue is an inquiry. What Mahatma Gandhi means to us today. Is it not time to evoke his teachings of compassion & non-violence? The 12th issue is a departure: a celebration of Rain. Gallerie’s 13th issue is dedicated to Kashmir. It’s conflict of 15 years. The 14th issue celebrates women. Women who have empowered themselves and made a difference to their own lives and that of the community. The 15th issue explores multiculturism in Britain while the just-released 16th issue views the earth from various interesting perspectives. Gallerie’s just-released 17th issue titled, “Two Bengals” traces the shared culture of Bangla Desh and West Bengal.
