India Art Fair is the leading platform to discover modern and contemporary art in South Asia. Spread across a 20,000 square meter venue, it is the biggest event in India’s cultural calendar with pioneering exhibitors from across India presenting some of the region’s most iconic artists, alongside select international participants who bring works that have never or rarely been shown in India. Always aiming to increase audiences for the arts, we also host an expansive programme of artist-led talks, performances, workshops and projects, making the fair an established destination for creativity.

India Art Fair (IAF) is the leading platform to discover Modern and Contemporary art from South Asia, offering a unique access point to the region’s thriving cultural scene.

IAF provides curated insights into the cultural landscapes of India and its neighbouring countries, bringing together galleries, artists, private foundations, arts charities, artist collectives, national institutions, cultural events, and festivals. This collaborative effort fosters both domestic and international engagement with the region’s cultural history and development in innovative ways.

We are committed to supporting arts education and professional development, recognising the crucial need to support the growth of the local arts scene. We also provide dedicated exhibition space for emerging galleries and arts organisations. The fair runs a robust and extensive programme of events, including educational initiatives, artist commissions, and pop-up programmes, to increase audiences for the arts in India and globally.

India Art Fair is owned by Angus Montgomery Arts, a division of Angus Montgomery Ltd.
