A spate of galleries across Mumbai and Delhi are opening their doors for patrons of culture and art connoisseurs to immerse into the world of art this April.
This, of course, coincides with the healthy boom that Indian art is currently experiencing across the globe. According to art marketplaces, one of the reasons for the uptick in Indian art is due to record auction sales for art pieces by some of the most revered Indian artists including Tyeb Mehta, M.F Hussain and V.S Gaitonde that sold for millions of dollars. Moreover, a tide of young collectors are keen on getting into art collection as part of their aspirational living.
With that, here are some of the most exciting art exhibitions and shows that you must attend in April in Delhi and Mumbai:
When: April 3 - May 3
Where: Ojas Art, New Delhi
The exhibition marks a significant milestone—a twenty-year retrospective that explores the profound, silent dialogue between form and void. By bringing together Siddhartha Das’s extensive background in heritage scenography and museum practices with Chiara Nath’s multidisciplinary expertise in contemporary design and fashion, the collection offers a rare look at how absence and proximity shape our perception of physical space.
When: Until April 17
Where : Vadehra Art Gallery, D-53, Defence Colony, New Delhi
A multimedia solo exhibition by Ranbir Kaleka Circle of Stories presented by Vadehra Art Gallery brings together six multimedia arrangements created between 2007 and 2025, that trace the experimental storytelling central to Kaleka’s practice over six years.
When: April 3- May 17
Where: Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre, Mumbai
Moving between the scale of architecture and the intimacy of everyday objects, the exhibition reflects Subodh Gupta’s enduring interest in how ordinary materials can hold complex histories of movement, belief and collective experience. Curated by Clare Lilley, the exhibition will unfold across all four floors of the venue, A Fistful of Sky and offer one of the most expansive presentations of Gupta’s work in India in recent years.
When: April 22 - May 23
Where: B-24, Defence Colony, New Delhi
Process reflects on process as both method and meaning, bringing into dialogue a wide range of practices rooted in the South Asian context. The exhibition features works by the gallery’s roster of artists, whose practices emphasise process, research, and the conceptual use of media and material. The show features artists including Amitava, Anoli Perera, Arun Dev, Awdhesh Tamrakar, and more.
When: Until April 11
Where: Sunder Nagar, New Delhi
Curated by Sanya Malik of Black Cube and Shantanu Sharma, Yusuf’s art is an ongoing conversation between control and freedom, discipline and flow, presence and absence. The line - simple, direct, and elemental - becomes a site of profound exploration, a philosophical proposition. It is a mark that records the act of seeing, thinking, and feeling whilst carrying the memory of movement.
When: April 14- 20
Where: Jehangir Art Gallery, Mumbai
Curated by Ina Puri, the exhibition traces a significant trajectory within Vishakha Apte’s oeuvre—from fragmented figuration and solitary forms to works that suggest connection, growth, and spatial presence. Rooted in lived experience and shaped by an intimacy with materials, her works invite a slower, more attentive encounter.
When: Until 25 April
Where: Jhaveri Contemporary, Mumbai
A pioneer of analogue colour street photography, the late Raghubir Singh's solo exhibition chronicles the city between the late 70s to mid 90s. The vibrant, dynamic and occasionally surreal photographs capture the city’s character and, as Singh said, ‘the several forces working in Bombay.
When: April 27 – May 3
Where: Bikaner House Centre for Contemporary Art (CCA), New Delhi
British artist Stuart Robertson's upcoming exhibition rests on a simple yet profound meeting point: sight. Created during an 18-month residency at Dr Shroff’s Charity Eye Hospital in Daryaganj, New Delhi, the works span across photography, drawing, bronze sculpture and cyanotype and offers an intimate and deeply human portrait of one of India’s most respected charitable eye institutions.
When: April 8 – April 15
Where: LTC, Bikaner House, New Delhi
Curated by Sonali Batra, the exhibition brings together fifty works spanning centuries and geographies, creating a cross-continental, cross-century conversation on representation. It traces the evolution of the human face as a site of
expression, power, and memory, approaching portraiture not as a fixed genre but as an evolving inquiry
into identity and visibility.
When: Until April 19
Where: Method, Delhi
A solo exhibition by Sehaj Malik and curated by Sahil Arora, Points of Cont(act) is conceived as a spatial system. The exhibition positions the body as both instrument and particle, an active agent that enters, tests, and reconfigures the architecture it inhabits.
