In Hauz Khas? This Art Gallery Has Stunning Exhibits, Movie Screenings, Workshops & More

Delhi Art Gallery, in the midst of Hauz Khas Village, is a free entry gallery space that’s a Mecca for every art lover. 

Established in 1993, this gallery focuses on representing the range of styles, themes and art practices undertaken since the modern period {that’s 20th century onwards}. In addition, they showcase works of some of the most celebrated travelling European artists, Bengal School of Art, Progressive Artists Group as well as leading contemporary painters. Their extensive collection includes artworks from renown artists, like M.F.Husain, J.P. Gangoogly, Amrita Sher-Gill and Laxma Goud. {A previous exhibition had a rendition of The Last Supper with an Indian touch – fascinating stuff}. Aiming to make art a more frequent {and relevant} topic of conversation, they are quite active about reaching out to diverse audiences through organising activities like informal chat sessions, curated walkthroughs, movie screenings, workshops and so on. Believers in the fact that art leaves no one behind, they also organise a tactile experience called Abhas for people with special needs, especially the visually impaired. This allows them to experience select works of art through tactile aids, as well as through a book written in Braille. 

The artwork they display keeps on rotating from time to time, and is usually varying enough in theme to keep things interesting – so, every visit ends up being as good as the first. Also, you can find a list of all the artists and paintings they have in their collection on their website. So, collectors of fine art, feel free to contact them and they’ll help with what you need. Their sales unit will guide you through it.
