Kolkata Centre for Creativity, in collaboration with Kerala Lalithakala Akademi and other KCC partners, is delighted to present The Satyajit Ray Centenary Show (Volume III). After the roaring success of the first two volumes of the show, KCC is back with the 3rd volume of the exhibition that will highlight Ray’s brilliance and personality through his works. The exhibition will take place at the Durbar Hall Art Centre, Ernakulam from 25th September to 25th October, 2022, 11 am to 7 pm.  P. Rajeev  Minister for Law, Industries and Coir graced the inauguration of the show.

The show will bring together the lesser-known aspects of Ray's works from Gallery Rasa's collection like his lobby cards, press books, posters, book covers and rare photographs of the maestro by Nemai Ghosh and Tarapada Banerjee. The show will also feature enthralling additions to the previous volumes including costumes from the film “Shatranj Ke Khiladi” (courtesy of Suresh Jindal, producer of 'Shatranj ke Khilari) and unpublished letters written by Ray to Debjani Ray, thus presenting the most comprehensive exhibition of Ray.

“For the first time, KCC is collaborating with the Kerala Lalithakala Akademi at Kochi to provide an extensive view of Ray's works and his personality to a newer audience beyond Bengal who also shares a deep-rooted Ray connection. The third volume of the Satyajit Ray Centenary Show, an evolved version of the Centenary Shows held earlier at KCC, is now travelling beyond West Bengal and I hope that it will continue to blossom and spread the light of Ray's creative genius” says Richa Agarwal, chairperson, Kolkata Centre for Creativity.
