The exhibition was a homage to the late artist Zahoor Ul Akhlaq , a prominent artist and art educator of Pakistan who spearheaded the study of Neo- Miniature at the National College of the Arts, Lahore. He also taught and exhibited in Canada and other countries.
The exhibition had two distinct sections , one with a small retrospective of the artist and the other a display of works on takhti, a wooden tablet, which were specially created by fellow artists and students . In the 1990s Zahoor frequently painted on the takhti and this was their way to remember his influential practice. The curatorial team was led by Zahoor’s wife Sheherezade Alam a well known studio potter , and comprised of Gulzar Haider and Niilofur Farrukh among others.
