Founded in 2008, India Art Fair is one of South Asia's leading platform for modern and contemporary art.

The ninth edition of the India Art Fair that began in New Delhi today exhibits a rare mix of colours, grandeur and, with its continued focus in nurturing global interest in South Asian arts, showcases works of emerging as well as established artists from the region.

The three-day fair is joined by participating South Asian galleries like Britto Arts Trust from Dhaka, Nepal Art Council from Kathmandu, Theertha International Artists’ Collective from Colombo and Blueprint 12 from New Delhi.

An extensive array of art programmes, ranging from the exhibitions on the works of renowned artists like M.F. Hussain to the subtle narratives that emerge from the sketches of the 20th century political artist Chittaprosad Bhattacharya, find display spanning the outdoor and indoor fair space.
The Speakers’ Forum at the fair will also have an exciting programme that presents artists, curators, critics, administrators, academics, gallerists and collectors.

In an attempt to explore the future of museums, Richard Armstrong (Director, Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum and Foundation, New York) and Sheena Wagstaff (Leonard A. Lauder Chairman of Modern and Contemporary Art, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York) will come together in a panel discussion on Friday.

The two experts will together explore the subject in a lively discussion before the audience here.

“BMW Art Talk: The Art of Collecting” is another much anticipated session in which Thomas Girst (Head of Cultural Engagement BMW Group, Munich) and Sheikha Hoor Al Qasimi (President and Director of the Sharjah Art Foundation) will look at the diverse field of collecting on Saturday.
Sharing their perspectives on South Asian art will be Pooja Sood (Director of Khoj International Artists Association, New Delhi), Alessio Antonelli (Director of Gasworks, London) and Boon-Hui Tan (Director, Asia Society Museum, Singapore) in a session “Perspectives from Networks of South Asian Art” on Sunday.

The Speakers’ Forum will also facilitate intimate conversations between collectors from India and across the globe with speakers who will provide a glimpse into their private collections.
Some of the well-known names featuring in the segment are French art collectors Jean-Conrad and Isabelle Lemaître; Brussels-based collector Frederic de Goldschmidt and one of India’s leading art collectors, Anurag Khanna.


The 2017 edition of the fair is also featuring both longstanding representatives of Indian art and new exhibitors from around the globe who are keen to develop relationships with the Indian art market, including Kalfayan Galleries (Athens), Grey Noise (Dubai), 1×1 Gallery (Dubai), Sabrina Amrani (Madrid) and Lukas Feichtner Galerie (Vienna).
