Imagine being able to take a look at the most exciting artefacts from some of best known museums in India, without having to go from one city to another. The Bihar Museum Biennale 2021 makes that possible. Anjani Kumar Singh, the Nodal Officer of the Bihar Museum and Advisor to the Chief Minister of Bihar, who conceived the idea along with Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, calls it the first-ever museum biennale in the world. “The idea was to involve all the Indian museums and get them to bring their artefacts, so people know the strength of our museums. The difference between this and any other biennale is, here the museums are participating, while in the others it is the artistes who participate,” says Singh.
