The Museum of Art and Photography (MAP) in Bengaluru houses many fascinating objects of art that will now be showcased over the digital medium this weekend. Through the Art As A Storyteller session, the museum will conduct an interactive director-led walkthrough showcasing the highlights of their collection at the museum, in the areas of photography, modern and contemporary art, textiles, paintings, sculptures, and more.

“The collection is the backbone of the museum. Through this, we’re trying to reach out to people for them to get  them to know MAP better and for us to deepen our relationship with our audiences since we’re still a new museum,” says director Kamini Sawhney. “The idea is also based on storytelling. The question before us was how we could unlock the stories behind these objects and also share them with people to spark their curiosity,” she adds.
