For close to two decades now Vadehra Art Gallery (VAG) has been promoting contemporary Indian art through exhibitions, retrospectives and publications. Set up in 1987, we are today one of the biggest art galleries in India both in terms of the shows we organise and the artists we deal with. It has been an exciting time for us working closely with some of India’s finest artists from different generations. Over the past 20 years VAG has been the locus through which many artists’ works have reached the public. In a country like India which does not have a vibrant art museum culture, galleries like ours are vital sites where the production and dissemination of contemporary art take place. We were the first to collaborate with the government-run National Gallery of Modern Art to organise retrospectives of Ram Kumar, Raghu Rai, Devyani Krishna, A Ramachandran, S H Raza and the forthcoming Tyeb Mehta retrospective. In short we paved the way for an active collaboration of the private and public sector in the area of art. We were also the first to go into art publishing in a systematic way in 1996. We have published twelve books so far that range from monographs on artists, to books on art making technique, to picture books and finally a comprehensive art directory. We have been consultants to Christie’s for contemporary Indian art since 1995.
In February 2006
we held the first-ever Picasso exhibition in a private gallery in
India, in collaboration with Grosvenor Gallery, London, and its
success demonstrated that India has indeed become a destination for
the international art world. We have taken this partnership forward
by opening Grosvenor Vadehra Gallery in London in 2006.
