I was thinking of a separate idea to display the works of photographers or fine artist. It was kind of adding another dimension to how we can see and feel the picture or art work in front of us. A fourth Dimension Gallery- FDGALLERY.
An image/Art work can Convey feelings .It could be the beauty of a place like the misty munnar or the greens lush paddy field in kuttanad .
How would you approach this kind of framed images in a normally art gallery. Simple, right on the wall illuminated by an incandascent or plane light. And you stand in front of it mersmerised by the beauty of the image and the skills of the artist /photographer .
Let me add few more items to make your visit interesting.I am goingto add few more things.
1. An aroma in line withe the subject used in the images.
Yes, You are in front of a picture of a paddy field. You get the smell of the green paddy vibrating around the image.The smell of the mud. Tell me, wont this surely impact the way you percieve the image. Yes it will.
2. A small music/background sound
It will fill the void made by the silence between the frame and your mind.
This is what the items which were in my mind.
Now How do we solve / overcome or live with few challenges.
1.How come we give separate aroma to separate images and separate theme music
Ans: That is a challenge when each work is a sepatare theme.But if thats a theme based show we can emit aromas of different ingredients at different times of the show and have the music cycled .
2. Why do we need this extra dimension show.
Ans: If Art is to influence, learn and enjoy then surely the creative blending of smell and music will stand apart in making the Visit to the gallery a new experience.

Nice idea. This thign I have also thought once, but when thinking practically I thought at present may not be practicle for such a show. I have heard scientists thinking of such a level of movie making. We have reached till 3d cinemas a next level where according to the situation viewer will be able to get the smell of the location/person and will feel the same temperature of the location. Hoping before my dath , will be able to see such a cinema.
