Gallery Espace, one of India’s most iconic art galleries, is celebrating its 35th anniversary with a series of events highlighting its legacy in contemporary Indian art. The gallery opened its doors in 1989 with a show by Modernist legend MF Hussain and has planned a year of exhibitions, lectures, and special publications to mark its journey.
Kicking off the celebrations is Ancestral Futures, an exhibition curated by Swiss curator Damien Christinger, renowned for his deep, thought-provoking approach to art. From October 18 to December 12, 2024, at Gallery Espace, the exhibition will feature Indian and European artists exploring the gallery’s past while imagining future art practices.
