Isha Ambani paid tribute to her mother, Nita Ambani, during the inaugural NMACC dinner held in Venice to mark the opening of the India Pavilion at the 61st International Art Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia.
Addressing artists, curators, and cultural figures from different countries, Isha Ambani spoke about Nita Ambani’s journey from being trained in classical Indian dance to later working in education and sports before establishing the Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre.
Welcoming guests to the event, Isha Ambani said the vision behind NMACC has always been to present India’s artistic and cultural heritage on the global stage while also bringing international artistic excellence to India. She also praised the team involved in organising the India Pavilion and raised a toast to art, friendship, and continued cultural dialogue.
