It has been said that, he who controls the past, controls future. Our view of history shapes the way we view the present.
History is important. In centuries past this statement would have seemed <g data-gr-id="62">self evident</g>. Ancient cultures devoted much time and effort to teaching their children family history. Modern <g data-gr-id="61">society however</g> has turned its back on the past. We live in a time of rapid progress. We prefer to decline ourselves in terms of where we are going, not where we come from. Our ancestors <g data-gr-id="59">holds</g> no importance to us. Man is has become so smart that an event what happened ten years ago is outdated to him. Our ignorance of that past is not the result of a lack of information, but of indifference. We do not believe that history matters.

The exhibition of unique contemporary paintings entitled <g data-gr-id="48">Adim</g> is to be held, from May 25 to 31. From the threshold of modern life and ancient <g data-gr-id="50">life</g> his view to our society clearly <g data-gr-id="49">reflected to</g> his paintings.
Creating a society to stamp his power, human history is full of its own characteristic. After that Rabindranath gives attention not only humans but also some other creatures gets some serious attention. All works <g data-gr-id="55">looks</g> like cave – painting of modern society and says the same statement of past- History does matter.
