Details of the Event
IAF also features curated 'Conversations' a two-days educative seminar - a series of panel discussions offering expert perspectives on the subjects ranging from the contemporary art and the economy, art collection, exhibitions, to art galleries and infrastructure. The speakers invited at IAF Conversations include artists, gallerists, museum directors, critics, historians, institution-builders, cultural organizers, editors, and publishers.
India Art Festival, the only contemporary art fair in India hosting two annual editions at Mumbai and New Delhi positions itself today as a successfully tested module of art fair with a focus on both - art galleries and independent artists.
India Art Festival and our in-house quarterly art publication 'Indian Contemporary Art Journal' published since 2007 started the development of inducting unrepresented and marginalized radical visual voices from every nook and corner of the country in mainstream Indian art marketplace. IAF Artists' Pavilion is a sort of talent hunt gala to discover hidden gems in visual arts from rural and urban parts of India. This also facilitates to offer numerous choices to Indian art buyers. Acknowledged for its simple and unbiased presentation of visual art, IAF has been changing the way audience view, buy and sell art.
Every year IAF hosts over 400+ exhibiting artists and 50 art galleries from across India and Asian sub-continent, showcasing exciting original artworks, prints, paintings, drawings, sculptures, photography, ceramics, lithographs, installations and more - all under one roof at Thyagaraj Stadium, New Delhi and Nehru Centre, Mumbai.
Since its first edition in 2011, IAF successfully initiated the process of democratizing Indian art market at two levels – first by mingling less-articulate rural artists with the metro-bred highly articulate urban artists and second by creating simple but refreshing ambience for very 'art viewing, buying and selling' process outside the confines of unapproachable art spaces.
At IAF we are passionate about helping promote art galleries, art dealers, online art galleries and independent artists. Apart from four days India art festival at exhibition venue in Mumbai and New Delhi, now India Art Festival with all participating art galleries and artists exhibitors in 150 booths along with their exhibits is available online at www.eindiaartfestival.com for year around viewing, buying and selling. Www.eindiaartfestival.com (eIAF) is as such online art fair which creates a powerful synergy of IAF and eIAF media campaigns throughout the year, thereby expanding the art buying circle to international level.
