South Asian Modern + Contemporary Art features works by the region’s Modernist masters and some of today’s most sought-after contemporary artists.

Highlights include works from Modernist masters such as Maqbool Fida Husain, Syed Haider Raza and Ram Kumar, who premieres an undiscovered figurative work from his popular early period from the 1950s to the 1960s. The sale also features notable examples from many lauded contemporary artists, including Subodh Gupta, Bharti Kher and Zarina.
