Several teachers and former students of CU were also present at the ceremony.
The exhibition featured 30 artworks through which Mansoor primarily tried to express his inner thoughts and feelings through dots, lines, colour, light and shadow.
Addressing the opening ceremony, Professor Sultan Ahmed said that one can easily express his feelings, ideas, thoughts, persons and surroundings through his art work.
He expressed deep appreciation of the exhibition and expressed the hope that it would encourage young artists to engage themselves in such creative art.
Artist Mansoor Cazee informed that this was his second solo exhibition and he was delighted that many artists and art lovers came to enjoy his exhibition.
“Abstraction is revealed through my paintings. The colours used in the paintings of Piet Mondrian, Wasily Kandinsky, John Miro, Henri Matisse, Pablo Picasso have inspired my paintings," he added.
He said among the basic colours, black and white took precedence in his paintings and he tried to express his feelings through these colours.
