Greetings!
The Fine Arts Section, IIT Roorkee, is back with immense excitement to present the Annual Art Exhibition – “DARPAN” 2026!

This year’s theme, “Aadambar (आडम्बर),” explores the idea of illusion versus reality. It reflects on the grand displays we create—of power, wealth, virtue, and perfection—that often mask the truths hidden beneath. Through this theme, the exhibition invites viewers to question the spectacle of appearances: the pomp, the performance, and the carefully crafted façades that society builds.
“ Man is born free; and everywhere he’s in chains.”
—Jean-Jacques Rousseau, The Social Contract, 1762

Venue: SAC Ground Floor
Date and Time: 13th March (6 PM) – 15th March

We warmly invite you to experience this immersive showcase of creativity and history.

Art speaks. But does it have a price?
What is free art actually worth? 🌿
DARPAN is more than an exhibition — it’s a space that holds value for every student who’s ever paused in front of a canvas, even if just for a moment. Help us measure that value, scientifically.
Fill our short survey, and walk away with a free postcard 🌹 We’re conducting an economic valuation study of DARPAN — and we need your honest take. Visited or not, your perspective counts. Takes ~12 minutes, completely anonymous. Fill it and claim your free postcard at the exhibition. ⭐

The wait is almost over as we unveil the 2026 edition of Darpan, our annual celebration of art and expression.

With this year’s theme, “Aadambar,” we explore the world of grandeur, extravagance, and artistic opulence. Each piece reflects a different vision of luxury, excess, and the dazzling nature of human creativity.
Join us as we journey through bold ideas and striking visuals, where every creation captures a unique shade of Aadambar✨

Come one, come all! And be sure to save the date: 13th March 2026.
