dagworld
India’s most respected art company began its journey not as an art gallery but as an art institution right from its very inception three decades ago, choosing to build up a formidable inventory of works by Indian artists from the nineteenth century onwards. In acquiring artists’ studios and estates, it paid homage to their legacy and created a large pool of twentieth century artists and artworks that, taken together, tell the story of Indian art through iconic exhibitions curated to provide art historical overviews and document India’s tryst with modernism.
DAG has also run exhibition programmes with the National Gallery of Modern Art, the Bhau Daji Lad Museum in Mumbai, as well as at Jawahar Kala Kendra in Jaipur, the Lalit Kala Akademi in Chandigarh, and other important institutions. It's museums programme is a key step towards DAG's vision of democratising access to Indian art.
DAG’s galleries are located in New Delhi and Mumbai in India, and in New York in U.S.A.
