A treat for art connoisseurs
India Art Festival to showcase over a thousand artists
India Art Festival (IAF) brings together 45 art galleries and 1,000 individual artists from 50 different cities across the world next month. After last year’s success, the second edition of IAF starts from November 28 to December 2 for five days at Bandra-Kurla Complex, on the MMRDA Main Ground. The exhibition is the only mixed art fair module in the world, where art galleries and individual artists exhibit under the same roof. The prime reason for such a mixed art fair module lies in the directive principles of Kalavishkar, an organising institution promoting fine arts for over a decade. “There are 400 art galleries including private and public art spaces in India, which are not sufficient for 80,000 artists in the country. We aim to provide a platform for both through IAF,” says Prafulla Dahanukar, President of IAF. Some of the participating galleries include Gallery Beyond, Tao Art Gallery, Gallery Art & soul, The Loft, ICAC ( Mumbai), Galerie Sara Arakkal (Bangalore), Forum Art Gallery (Chennai), Progressive Art Gallery (Delhi), Icon Art Gallery (Hyderabad), Art Concotion, Contemporary Art Direct (London) and 30 other galleries.
To participate, artists can call on 9820737692 or visit www.indiaartfestival.com
