Exhibition of cutting-edge contemporary art at Devi Art Foundation
The Devi Art Foundation has been established with the aim of facilitating the viewership of creative expression and artistic practice that exist in the Indian sub-continent. It hopes to serve as a platform for young artists whose works have an experimental edge to them, as well as older artists whose practice continues to investigate new territories.
Located in Sector 44 of Gurgaon, the Foundation hosts curated exhibitions of contemporary art from the Indian Subcontinent. Born out of the exciting collection of Lekha and Anupam Poddar, the Foundation's key mission is to connect audiences in the NCR with cutting-edge, contemporary art from the Indian Subcontinent. The Foundation hope to serve as a centre for a growing dialogue around contemporary Indian art.
The Foundation's Education and Outreach programme is geared towards creating opportunities for the engaging with contemporary Indian art, through guided tours, lectures, and informal set-ups that encourage questions and dialogue.
