In the city, you’ll find that Bombay is one of the most interesting places on the planet.  As one of the longest continually inhabited places, there is an incredibly rich history here.  As a reflection of this history, the visual artists who have been captivated by Bombay show their inspiration in sumptuous works of art.  One of Bombay’s most prized institutions is the newly remodeled National Gallery of Modern Art, Mumbai.  This treasure house shows some of the more exceptional classic works of visual art, and features artists from antiquity and contemporaries. Abstract and representational works are both featured here, along with a host of other fascinating exhibitions.

The National Gallery of Modern Art is in a building that was once known as Sir Cowasji Jehangir Public Hall, which was donated to the city of Mumbai in 1911.  It served as the principle auditorium for all manner of cultural events, until it fell out of favor in the 1950s.  Aritsts in the city were responsible for lobbying for the renovation, and the space is once again used for large public functions, such as the memorial for Tyeb Mehta, a giant of the Bombay art scene.  The National Gallery of Modern Art also holds a fascinating collection on mummy’s and paintings by Picasso, making it a must-see for all ages.
