Artbuzz is a first of its kind endeavour to attempt to fill the lack of education and exposure to art in the Indian Subcontinent. It is a one-stop resource for information on Modern and Contemporary Art in the region.Based on the ideals of being democratic and inclusive, Artsome is dedicated to taking art beyond a niche audience. It is designed to introduce people to Art from India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh. Our primary motive in putting up the website is to simplify Art for anyone with a willingness to learn.PRESSING CONCERNS• Due to its restricted reach Art Education is not very easily available in this region. There is a lack of exposure and interest among the masses simply because they are unaware of artists and their whereabouts.• In schools, children are taught how to paint, but there is no specific training programme designed to educate them about existing artists and their works. The curriculum only provides practical knowledge of various art forms, with little or no attention to art theory.• Visiting museums and art exhibitions is not ingrained in our system since childhood. The average Indian families lack the inclination to view and experience art regularly.• Moreover, in the Indian subcontinent there is very little time and energy devoted to covering art events in the Media. If television is considered to be a major source of acquiring knowledge, then art education is not considered to be of much importance.NEED OF THE HOURTaking into account the existing problems/ issues at hand, Artsome tackles the situation on two fronts. The first being our online resource Artsome.co, and the other is our offline component Educate Artsome.Artsome.co – An exhaustive online resource housing an artists' directory, bibliography of art terms, latest feeds, articles and reviews.• Each artist has his/her own profile and we have designed a novel timeline featuring their significant works, exhibitions and press highlights.
