Modern & Contemporary Indian Art

Christie's sales of Modern and Contemporary Indian Art concentrate on the geographic regions of India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka. Encompassing art from the last century, the sales focus primarily on works from the second half of the 20th century, which experienced a renaissance after the partition of India in 1947. Works of Indian modernists, including those by the renowned Bombay Progressives Group are typically featured in Christie's auctions alongside works by a younger increasingly avant garde group of artists from South Asia.

As the leading auction house for Modern and Contemporary Indian art, Christie's holds sales across the globe in New York, Hong Kong, London and recently has welcomed Dubai into its repertoire, launching the sale site with an auction of international contemporary art in 2006.
