In a tribute to the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People, the Embassy of Palestine in Dhaka on Friday hosted an art exhibition featuring the artworks of Bangladeshi artist Tahina Tabani.
The exhibition underscored global recognition of the day, marking November 29 when the UN Partition Resolution was adopted in 1947. The resolution proposed the establishment of separate Jewish and Arab states in Palestine.
Partnering with Consular Corps in Bangladesh, the exhibition showcased 39 pieces by Tahia Tabani, combining vibrant paintings and intricate calligraphy, a press release said.
Among them, 24 artworks specifically focused on the Palestinian cause, with all proceeds dedicated to humanitarian aid in Gaza.
For the remaining 15 pieces, 70 per cent of sales would contribute to Gaza relief efforts, the press release said.
Tahia, who initiated her campaign in recent months, used her art to support international relief initiatives for those affected by the devastating bombings in Gaza.
The event at the Palestine embassy not only highlighted Tahia鈥檚 artistic talent but also amplified efforts to address the pressing humanitarian needs in Palestine, the press release said.
