Drama at modern art gallery inauguration


Inauguration of national modern art gallery in Bangalore witnessed some noisy scenes today after medical education minister Ramchandra Gowda's remarks invited the wrath of the artists, who were present at the function.

Gowda said artists in the name of creativity are making obscene works, which caused protests from artists, including renowned artist, M S Murthy.

The angered artists had a heated verbal argument with the minister and the police had to intervene. The artists then staged a silent protest against the minister, alleging he insulted the artists' community.
