Indian Art Galleries

By: Sandy John Home | Arts-and-Entertainment


The art produced on the Indian subcontinent is referred to as Indian Art. It has had its existence since 3rd millennium BC. For centuries, Indian Art has been a source of fascination for art lovers around the world. â€Indian period is very special and unique in terms of art, literature and architectureâ€, they say. Indian art is extremely captivating, as colourful and interesting as the customs and traditions here. It demonstrates a strong influence of religion, philosophical systems and includes rich associations with religion and spiritualisation, wild imaginations as well as humanization of celestial beings. Infact the effort is made to interpret the single purpose of life through art. Its characteristic can be observed in its modern as well as traditional forms.

Categorization of Indian art can be done in terms of its period of existence:
â€Ancient Period (3500 BCE-1200 CE)
â€Islamic ascendancy (1192-1757)
â€Colonial Period (1757â€1947)
â€Independence and the Postcolonial Period (Post-1947)

For Indian art-lovers several art galleries have been established in major cities. "Art Gallery" refers to an art museum where they display and sell paintings and sculpture. A number of them have now sprawled all over the country. It may be interesting to note that there had been almost nil art galleries 2- 3 decades ago. The upcoming generation is showing more and more interest and passion in the Indian artworks. Indian art galleries feature a collection of Indian paintings, abstract art, realistic art, surrealistic art, watercolour paintings, etc. These are consistently working towards recognising, encouraging, patronizing & grooming this talent. Top 5 Indian art galleries can be listed as: Pandol Art Gallery (Mumbai), Chemould Art Gallery (Mumbai), Ashish Balram Nagpal Gallery (Mumbai), Vadehra Art Gallery (New Delhi), Dhoomimal Gallery (New Delhi) and Nature Morte (New Delhi).

Apart from the regular art galleries there are online galleries which are spreading much faster. Technology here offers easy home access to the finest artworks of India. Online art galleries run as a business with the purpose of displaying artwork being to promote it to the potential buyers. Through web you would be able to display numerous artworks on the website to millions of users at the same time. The websites focus at keeping up with the fast changing global art scenario and provide an opportunity to keep a constant track of the art world. As more and more people come to realize the uniqueness and distinctiveness of Indian art it is well-understood that the Indian Artworks has bright prospects and potential in the coming days.
