January 02, 2023 (IANSlife) Mumbai Gallery Weekend, kickstart's Mumbai's art and cultural calendar, from January 12 to 15, 2023. The large scale event will feature a wider variety of galleries, both established and emerging, located all over the city in Colaba, Fort, Kala Ghoda, Ballard Estate, Worli, Lower Parel, Byculla, and Bandra.
 

Experimeter Colaba, ChemouldCoLab, Art and Charlie, and the spectacular Ice Factory Ballard Estate—which will host a Young Collectors' Weekend—are recent additions to Mumbai's gallery scene and will be a part of the Weekend. The first-ever commissioned portrait by Raja Ravi Varma will be on display at DAG's space in the Taj Mahal Hotel, on the other extreme of the artistic spectrum.

There will be pop up exhibitions organised especially for the Weekend, by platforms such as The Upside Space. Some of the galleries will host talks in their spaces. Art and Charlie will host a dance performance, BhooterNach // The Ghost Dance, by Gia Singh Arora. Follow mumbaigalleryweekend on Instagram for more information and details. 

Mumbai Gallery Weekend began in 2012 with a group of 9 galleries, with the belief that a collective approach would make for a more vibrant art scene.  Now entering its 11th year, the Weekend will have 32 participating galleries and promises to be a sensational event.
