Photo Update : Kala Ghoda Arts Festival 2015

I was excited to visit famous Kala Ghoda Arts Festival - nine days long festival, commenced on 7th February and ended on 15th February. The KGAF 2015 was one of the biggest event with themes of Children, Cinema, Dance, Food, Heritage Walks, Literature, Music, Street and Stalls, Theatre, Urban Design and Architecture, Visual Art, and Workshops.

I am fortunate to be in Mumbai this time. That was on 14th February and I visited the KGAF on that very day, I reached the Kala Ghoda area by late evening and there were crowds surrounding each installation .

The stalls are really surprising and I just loved that. It was too dark to click photographs. These are the few pictures I could manage.

Photo Update: Kochi-Muziris Biennale 2014-15

I was so excited to visit Kochi-Muziris Biennale - an international exhibition of contemporary art held in Kochi, Kerala.  In its second edition, the Biennale, the only and first of its kind in India showcases Indian and international artists and their works across all kinds of mediums including film, photography, installations etc.

With art installations everywhere in the city, Kochi now seems to be an art city.  I started from Pepper House and then visited Aspinwall House, Greenix & Cabral Yard exhibits.

On the way I stopped at various art installations, and clicked pictures of interesting art installation and details of them. I hope this will give you first hand information and make you feel that you were there.
