Vision

DAFGI encourages, promotes and supports innovative work in the dynamic field of the visual arts. We believe that public programming can benefit all those participating in the making of contemporary Indian art, its practice and reception.   Now in our first year, we continue to move towards our goals and build credibility with our stakeholders – the artist community, Advertising studios, art historians, critics, gallery owners, art collectors,Film makers and enthusiasts.

We are working towards establishing a contemporary digital art museum on web which will host regular art events, educational programs and special exhibitions. The DAFGI Blog is the first step in this direction, with art publications and journals made available to the public and a space to host regular discussions and workshops.   Our desire is to be perceived as an organization with the energy and potential to grow.
