About Art Advisory & Sales
What Drives Us
I don't see Gallery G as just a place for buying art - it's more like a safe spot for stories, memories, and a bit of magic. For me, every artwork holds a bit of history, some longing, and a lot of legacy. I try to be more of a guide than a seller, whether you're looking for something meaningful or want to start your own collection. This is shilpo, the craft that connects us.
If You're New
Starting out in art collecting can feel a bit overwhelming. I actually love working with first-timers. I keep things simple - I encourage you to check out what catches your eye, learn about the artist’s journey, and just enjoy the process. My curator’s walks and guides are all about helping you make a choice that feels right, not rushed.
For Collectors & Investors
If you're on the lookout for Indian modern art investment, I help you with more than just picking a piece. I advise on finding works by artists like Raza, Husain, and Gaitonde, and I’ll walk you through checking provenance authentication and auction records, so you know what you’re getting is genuine and worth it.
Services That Matter
- Wide range: Abstract, figurative, mythological, and contemporary works from 50+ artists.
- Custom art commissions for homes, offices, or spiritual spaces.
- Every artwork comes with full provenance authentication and certificates.
Art That Travels
Art shouldn’t be stuck in one city. My ‘On The Go’ shows bring selected works to different places, so you get fresh chances to discover and collect.
Collecting art is personal. I'm here to help you start, learn, and grow your collection, one piece at a time.
