National Gallery of Modern Art

A wonderful space dedicated to art in the heart of Fort, the building itself is lovely to look at, let alone the substantial permanent collection.

My first post pandemic visit on the last day of an extensive exhibition entitled Sutr Santati featuring some clever works showcasing the versatility of textiles. Tucked away in between floors, an installation of embroidered "bricks" with its poignant history as part of the artist's childhood home and stories caught my eye. Rabindranath Tagore's Kabuliwala rendered in kantha was a thing of beauty.

It was a pleasure and a privilege to visit this exhibition and get an opportunity to see this well curated show of Textiles .

The highlight was the personalized guided tour by the curating team who literally wove in each narrative as delicately as the exhibit itself.

Always looking forward to the next show at NGMA

Went to see an exhibition organised by Air India. The paintings and work of art displayed were beyond inspiration. Most of them were created four decades ago and they were looking so new. Hats off to all the artists for their brilliant piece of work, especially B Prabh and also the curator, who organised the event.

If you are into paintings and modern art this place is a heaven. The store sells some outstanding prints so I will say it is a must buy. I’m case you wish to learn how to light and display paintings then also this is such a masterclass. The staff is extremely friendly and the shop is worth spending time in. I would recommend it for everyone. You need to maintain silence as the place has options for people to study art as well as view in peace

Attended the textile exhibition "Sutra Santati" ... It was amazing!

Walking Through Soul City - Sudhir Patwardhan

This was an amazing display of art work. Loved the detailing in every painting. Enjoyed each piece of art minutely. A must visit exhibition. Loved the different characters portrayed in each frame. Each one was unique. Each one has an identity. They weren't simply human beings. And every painting evoked thoughts in my head and created conversation.

Every exhibition is the best it can be at the NGMA. So far in the past year (2023) I have seen the Maharaja exhibition - select art works from the Air India collection and Sutr Santiti on India's textile traditions. Both were excellent. the gallery has locker facility and passably clean ladies washroom. Carry toilet seat sanitizer, toilet paper and most importantly a towel to wipe ur hands. Go for lunch to Kala Ghoda after that - recommend Knead by Moshe and The Pizza Dude both on the left side of the Rhythm House triangle.

I attended a breathtaking exhibition of Indian textiles from all over our beautiful country. It was an education for my young daughter who was quite delighted.

Most needed place for adult and kids to visit, it is like an exhibition ancient art and idols are presented, they have kept notes for the individuals arts and idols which useful to know the history and also they have made 1st floor separately for public to have a Tea Time, Best timing to visiting by afternoon in weekdays and weekend.

Great place!! Excellent collect of art from the 1920s by artist Bhagat. Paintings illustrates the culture and vibe of the 1920s. The sculptures are very craftily made. Enjoy the gallery :)

Great place to visit for art enthusiasts and in general anyone who is curious about modern art and want to see and know about different types of artwork displayed in the gallery. Locker facility is available to keep your belongings.

This is unarguably the best place to visit in terms of Modern art. The art works exhibited here by famous artists will make you speechless. There is constant change in the arts displayed here. The time I visited this place the an exhibition named 'Inner Resonance' was going on, which showcased the works done by Mr. S.G.Vasudev, which included paintings, drawings, copper etchings and tapestry.
The ticket price here is very cheap and you can spend as much time Nas you want and there is also a small souvenir shop selling books related to art, copy of paintings and cups.
If you ever go to Mumbai, you should definitely visit this place.

A beautiful gallery just opposite Regal cinema at Colaba. Entrance fee is very reasonable at Rs20 for Indians.

They regularly change their display, maybe once a month.

They currently have on display, the 'LIFE OF MAHATMA GANDHI'.

The displays comprise of paintings, collectables, daily use items, broken negatives on the MAHATMA.

Don't miss the display depicting the Dandi March. They have a projector that projects the waves on a wall, and they have made a sea shore with salt. His staff stands straight on the sea shore. And the sound of the waves rises in the background. JUST SPECTACULAR.

Another exhibit depicts a loom and threads flowing on the ground and circling alphabets that form a sentence. VERY MOVING AND TOUCHING.

You can take photographs, but without a flash and only from a mobile.

Great collection of arts which explains about our heritage, ancient times and our history. Must visit if you keep interest in Indian Art, history etc

The overall experience was amazing. I enjoy art immensely as it titillating the imagination. I would visit here at least 10 more times..

A wide range of artists and art styles. You don't need to buy an entry ticket. There are several rooms with two floors you can browse through. It was a lovely visit!

Beautiful gallery of modern art but it's quite small in size (I've expected way bigger gallery). Clean, well maintained. Collection well curated.
Entrance 20 rs for Indians, 500 rs for foreigners (if u have OCI card than 20 rs entrance).
There's available cafeteria with extremely affordable prices (omelette 50 rs, pav 20 rs, black coffee 30 rs)
Washroom available.

It is heaven for art lovers. If you are a beginner then you must visit once. Great to learn and exhibit your art.
