F. BEAUTIFYING PUBLIC SPACES


Asian Paints’ involvement with St+art India Foundation has been ongoing for over 9 years. Over the years this has included insights, varied resources, and unparalleled efforts in facilitating innovation in the public space. We have been an active and dynamic patron across multiple festivals and public art projects organised by St+art India in Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Kolkata, Chandigarh and Coimbatore creating iconic landmarks in these cities. Each public art district in the country and new editions of several festivals bring curated interventions to civic spaces that are embedded in urban culture, and use art as a tool to reimagine how public spaces can be utilised. All of these activations aimed to create a dialogue on pressing issues with regard to future cities. Together, we have created over 500 murals and established 6 public art districts across 30+ cities, aiming to make traditional and vernacular art forms more accessible and inclusive.
