01
Preservation and promotion
Of Indian painting and cultural heritage, through documentation, research and public programming.
Our work
The Sansthan’s work extends well beyond its flagship programme. It is engaged in six connected areas.
02
Recognition of artists
Through honours, felicitation ceremonies and platforms that bring visibility to painters who might otherwise work outside the national spotlight.
03
Exhibitions and cultural programmes
Art shows, lectures, seminars and events held both in India and, in time, abroad.
04
Dialogue and awareness
Through talks and discussions that connect audiences with the ideas behind India’s art and culture, not only its images.
05
Connecting the next generation
Students and young artists with India’s classical and modern painting traditions, so that this inheritance is not simply preserved, but actively carried forward.
06
A national platform for regional talent
Ensuring that artists from every state of the country have access to the same stage and the same recognition.
International presentation
Indian art’s diversity, talent and depth, on the world stage
The Sansthan works towards the international presentation of Indian art’s diversity, talent and depth, with the long-term ambition of representing this heritage on the world stage.
