The upcoming edition, which runs from February 1st to the 4th, is a forward-based art fair. It aims to identify patterns that will probably influence the conversation about art within the next ten or more years. One such effort is the new section on collectible design, for example. It examines the global blending of art and design, the emergence of the artist-designer, and the opening of more recent galleries specialising in collectible design.
The fair promises an exciting immersion into the world of contemporary art. The theme for this year is “Harmony in a Melting Pot,” which honours the variety and blending of civilisations that make up South Asia. You’ll get to see a diverse range of artistic expressions, from well-known masters to up-and-coming talents, all weaved together to create a lively conversation.
Stepping into the India Art Fair is akin to embarking on a journey through India’s artistic evolution. The fair provides a platform for artists, both established and emerging, to showcase their talent and engage with enthusiasts. The art fair will showcase a range of artistic styles and materials with 108 exhibitors from India and throughout the world. Furthermore, this includes 72 galleries and foreign art organisations.

This year, 108 exhibitors will assemble in a sustainable enclosure—that is, 72 galleries and art institutes. There are specific curated sessions concentrating on particular subjects such as “Mosaic Magic,” which explores the complex world of mosaic art, and “Spotlight on Hampi,” which examines the rich cultural legacy of the historic city. Take in live art demonstrations, performances, and multimedia installations that push the limits of artistic expression. Attend a series of thought-provoking talks and hands-on workshops led by prominent artists, curators, and collectors to gain insights.
Remarkably, the festival remains inclusive, offering wheelchair assistance, sign language interpreters, braille guides, tactile reproductions of important artwork, and even nursing facilities for expectant moms. In addition, the enlarged Inclusion Lab will feature unique projects that address ecological challenges and the natural world.
