Talwar Gallery, founded by Deepak Talwar, is a contemporary art gallery that opened in New York City in September 2001 and in New Delhi in 2007.[1]

Overview

[edit]

Talwar Gallery, New York was launched in September 2001 and Talwar New Delhi opened in 2007. Deepak Talwar, founder of Talwar Gallery, has been working with contemporary artists from India since 1996. Representing artists working in the Indian subcontinent today and the essential 20th century artists from India like Estate of Rummana Hussain and Nasreen Mohamedi, the Talwar Gallery is a contemporary art gallery that focuses on artists from the Indian subcontinent and its diaspora. The gallery's vision is the belief that the artist is geographically located, not the art. They claim their search for art goes beyond being based on geography, religion, culture or race.[2]
