Brihatta Art Foundation is introducing design exhibition “স্থিতি – objects in conversation”, which is the first design exhibition in Bangladesh highlighting the cultural consequence of furniture as design object. The exhibition will be inaugurated on Saturday, 18 JUNE, and will be open to all till 26 June, from 3pm to 8pm.

As an artist-run, collaborative art platform, the Brihatta Art Foundation supports the collective efforts of artists, architects, designers, producers, and researchers in inaugurating a shared dialogue about design in Bangladesh.
