Abstract

Art festivals serve as pivotal platforms for cultural exchange, fostering dialogue, understanding, and appreciation among diverse communities. This paper undertakes a comparative analysis of the roles played by art festivals in facilitating cultural exchange between India and Europe. While both regions boast rich cultural heritages, they differ significantly in historical contexts, artistic traditions, and socio-political landscapes. Through a comprehensive review of literature, this study examines the distinct characteristics of art festivals in India and Europe, their contributions to cultural diplomacy, and their impacts on promoting cross-cultural dialogue. The comparative analysis delves into various aspects, including the historical evolution of art festivals in both regions, their organizational structures, programming strategies, and the engagement of diverse artistic expressions. It explores how art festivals serve as platforms for artists, curators, and cultural practitioners to showcase their works, exchange ideas, and collaborate across borders. Furthermore, the study investigates the role of government policies, funding mechanisms, and institutional frameworks in shaping the landscape of art festivals in India and Europe.
