Art Lovers from across the country gear up for Mumbai Gallery Weekend

Mumbai Gallery Weekend began in 2012 with a view of bridging the gap between art connoisseurs, enthusiasts, and collectors; and Mumbai’s contemporary art galleries and cultural institutions. This year’s edition starts today, January 31 and continues through to February 4.  A total of 31 art spaces - including Akara Art, Bhau Daji Lab Museum, and the DAG Modern - will co-host the event, showcasing works by more than 60 artists.
