Hawa Mahal on the Beach Road was buzzing with activity at the inaugural of the four-day Vizag Art Fair on Friday. The art exhibition being organised by Mayank Kumari Deo was inaugurated by District Collector N. Yuvaraj on Friday. Over 90 artists and sculptors put on display some of their notable works at the show. This was just the sample of their works, exhibition curator Kattakuri Ravi said. The exhibition has been divided into three sections — Masters, Artists and Students.

Prof. Ramesh and Prof. Ravi Shankar Patnaik of AU Department of Fine Arts urged Mr. Yuvaraj to take up with appropriate authorities the issue of building a proper gallery in the city.

The exhibition is on from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. till Monday.
