Masterpiece

curatorial note

DAG debuted at the prestigious London fair in its seventh edition held in 2016. The gallery exhibited a delectable range by modern Indian masters such as Hemen Mazumdar, Rabindranath Tagore, F. N. Souza, G. R. Santosh and Avinash Chandra. Works on display included expressionist paintings by Rabindranath Tagore, metal sculptures by S. K. Bakre, erotica-inspired art by Avinash Chandra and Hemen Mazumdar, and tantric meditations of
S. H. Raza and G. R. Santosh. The museum-quality show was executed along with an event-specific publication.

A first in an association that continued the following year, DAG introduced British citizens to the creative genius of these stalwart 20th century
Indian artists. Individual books were published on each of the displayed artworks.
