ART MUMBAI, founded in 2023, is a dynamic platform dedicated to celebrating and promoting modern and contemporary South Asian art. The initiative was co-founded by leading art figures Minal Vazirani, Dinesh Vazirani, Nakul Dev Chawla, and Conor Macklin, each of whom brings decades of experience in the art world.
While ART MUMBAI is an annual fair, it aims to create a year-round calendar of exhibitions, walk-throughs, talks, and exclusive events, offering a global platform for South Asian artists. It serves as a meeting point for collectors, artists, and art enthusiasts, and actively contributes to building collections for both private individuals and institutions. With its founders’ deep roots in the art industry, ART MUMBAI seeks to expand the global reach of South Asian art while supporting a range of social and cultural initiatives.
