Concept is good, but I think you need to take it further. The line is not compelling at all. Find a line that is compelling, or clever. The font used for the bottom of the poster (time, date, venue, etc.) should change. Looks too much like something that would be printed on printer paper packaging. Not sure you need the text at the very bottom. Too distracting and has nothing to do with the exhibition. I would also put the sponsoring company's logo centered at the bottom. Generally, try to use one font for the entire ad. The font you used for the headline is atrocious.

Thanx, Are you suggesting that i should strictly go with bold and readable fonts? Especially the headline?
And do the subcopy below the headline should also be preferably done in bold fonts? I agree with the sponsors logo that should have been at the bottom. It would be very kind of you if you can state some example of fonts, that should have worked with this layout.

Debjit, the visual is great, I endorse with the first commenter. However, I suggest History was written on the paper not made. Just review

excellent art direction of the visual.
copy is not at par with the art direction. work for a more interesting line.
disagree on the choice of font for the headline. to me, the font's going with this retro art exhibit or maestro music feeling. have a premiumness.
The last three lines are redundant, can be dropped. rearrangement of the elements will help. well done.
