Collection Tour of TIFR led by Art and Wonderment | Art Mumbai Gateway

Join ART MUMBAI for a tour of the iconic art collection of the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR), led by Art and Wonderment.

The art collection of TIFR is one the earliest and most important collections of modern Indian art. The process of acquisition was initiated and nurtured by Homi Jehangir Bhabha, founding director of TIFR and one of the foremost scientific institution-builders of the post-Independence India. Bhabha took advantage of the government's initiative to spend a small percentage of the total funds assigned to new government buildings for artistic enrichment.

The tour offers the opportunity to walk through the corridors and rooms of the institute to view some remarkable art from the second half of the twentieth century. The collection includes rare, unseen works by M.F. Husain, S.K. Bakre, S.H. Raza, F.N. Souza, K.H. Ara, H.A. Gade, V.S. Gaitonde, Krishen Khanna, Nalini Malani, Anjolie Ela Menon and Sakti Burman.
