Mumbai – Full Day Modern & Contemporary Art Tour (South Mumbai)

We start the tour with a “Welcome to the Tour” meeting at Kala Ghoda Cafe. The Curator/Tour Leader will explain the tour details with a brief introduction to the history and the evolution of contemporary art in India. This would be an informal meeting over a cup of coffee followed by a quick Q&A session

The Tour begins with a Curator led visit to the National Gallery of Modern Art, Mumbai. The gallery provides an excellent introduction, showing clearly how external cultures impacted on indigenous art. Enjoy the walk through the several floors of the gallery and its artworks and installations. This would be followed by a visit to a heritage art gallery where the group would get some insight into the trending art in India.
Later we take a stroll down the street art exhibition to admire or purchase (optional)

Our morning session ends with a lunch break where the guests are introduced to some innovative Indian Cuisine. This delightful three course meal is specially prepared by the chef for our group. Go ahead and ask the chef for the secrets recipes that will help you understand what lies beneath the Indian creativity.

After lunch, we move to watch some artist studios and some interesting display of art by various Indian artists. Chat up with these artists and get to know their first-hand account of their art escapades. The Curator will help explain the finer nuances of modern art and the thought behind traditional subjects of Indian artists.

In the last concluding session, we head straight to one of Colaba’s famous art galleries for a special curated tour for the ACT guests. After a brief introduction by the gallery staff, the guests are free to browse through the beautiful artworks and some installations.
The curator/Tour Leader bids farewell and gives the concluding remarks. Followed by a brief feedback session and gratuities.
