Discovering Hidden Tribal Art and Culture

India is a city that is famous for its great cultural heritage

. The country has produced many world-renowned authors, playwrights and musicians, which is probably due to the nation's diverse cultural background. Though India is considered to be one nation, each region has its unique culture and customs and serves as a melting pot of sorts for discerning artists.

Bangalore, the capital of the state of Karnataka, is a particularly vibrant place for the arts. The Kala Madhyam Centre in Bangalore is dedicated to uplifting and encouraging local artists by giving them a venue to showcase their talents and also the guidance to further refine their work. The founders of Kala Madhyam believe passionately in their mission and believe that in India, art and culture is not merely a form of entertainment but also a means of expression.

The Kala Madhyam Store gives its pride of place to rural and tribal artistes who would otherwise have no means to presenting their art. Though the founders of the store meant for it to be one dedicated to arts and crafts, they now say that they are in the business of hearts and crafts' since for many rural craftsmen their livelihood also defines their identity.

Among the treasures to be found at the store are a collection of paintings, all of which have their own signature style and use natural, non toxic pigments. Artists from almost all of the Indian states are represented at this gallery, with far off places like Rajasthan and Orissa having dedicated enclosures.

Apart from this art gallery, the Kala Madhyam also has a special section for local handicrafts and regularly features tribal cultural shows. Even culinary experts that specialize in India tribal food have demonstrations here, which is evidence enough that the Kala Madhyam doesn't believe in the traditional definition of art. This interesting treasure trove of indigenous culture can be easily accessed by hotels in Bangalore since it is located in a central part of town. The luxury hotel Bangalore known as the Ista Bangalore is a particularly well-recommended accommodation for tourists.
