While appreciating the art work of Mr. Ghazi, the Ambassador stated that the Embassy of Pakistan in Brussels had always promoted the creative endeavours of Pakistani artists and showcased them to the Belgian people. He emphasized that more such events would be arranged in future.
Participating in the event through video-conference, Mr. Ghazi expressed gratitude to the Ambassador for patronizing the event. He highlighted the importance of art, which acted as a bridge between different cultures in this globalized world. He hoped that his artwork would remind visitors that Pakistan is a land of creative and enlightened people, who loved art and culture.
The event was attended by a large number of art enthusiasts, civil society members, members of the diplomatic corps and media representatives.
The event was followed by traditional Pakistani cuisine which was highly appreciated by the participants.
