There’s arty news for those who love a good puff – art inspired by cigars! Kastros, a cigar shop, in association with the Enigma Art Gallery has launched a first-of-its kind venture, The Cigar Art Company.

To begin with, Cigar Art has started a weeklong art camp where 14 artists from all over the country are being taken through the world of cigar. They will interpret their experience and indulgence of cigars on canvas which will be showcased.

Manish Dutt, managing director of Kastros, says: “The idea is to translate and portray the opulence, the luxury, the feel of cigar in varied mediums of art, be it canvas, photography, installation or abstract or any other.”

Warning aside, a good puff can be also a work of art!
