Delhi NCR’s art calendar for April 24–26 is split across three hubs: Mandi House for an art fair, Gurugram for photography, and Okhla for a major group show. (realshepower.in) RealShePower’s April 17 listing names Kalaa Spandan Art Fair at Aga Khan Hall in Mandi House from April 24 to 26, “What Remains” at Museo Camera in DLF Phase IV, Gurugram, until April 26, and “Intersections: Sites of Becoming” at Arthshila Delhi in Okhla until April 30. (realshepower.in) The same weekend also overlaps with performance programming in central Delhi. RealShePower lists a Tribute to Guru Pt. Rajan Misra at India Habitat Centre on April 24 at 7 p.m. and the play “Bindoo… The Dot” there on April 26 at 7:30 p.m. (realshepower.in) The Mandi House stop matters because it bundles visual art with Delhi’s densest theatre district. RealShePower says the area is also active around the 25th Bharat Rang Mahotsav, the National School of Drama’s theatre festival. (realshepower.in; brm.nsd.gov.in) The Okhla exhibition is tied to a larger institutional milestone. India Art Fair says “Intersections: Sites of Becoming” marks 50 years of the Inlaks Shivdasani Foundation and runs from February 7 to April 30 at Arthshila Delhi. (indiaartfair.in) That gives the weekend a mix of short-run and long-run programming. Kalaa Spandan is scheduled only for April 24–26, while the Arthshila show stays open four days longer, through April 30. (realshepower.in; indiaartfair.in) Gurugram’s Museo Camera adds a photography-specific stop to the route. The institution describes itself as an 18,000-square-foot not-for-profit center for photographic arts run through a public-private partnership with the Municipal Corporation of Gurugram. (museocamera.org) Museo Camera is also running hands-on programming that weekend. Its events page lists “Art Hour @ Museo” on April 25, a Foundation Course in Photography starting April 25, and a Film and Analog Photography Workshop on April 25–26. (museocamera.org) Kiran Nadar Museum of Art is not on the RealShePower roundup, but its current “What’s On” page shows parallel programming in Delhi, including exhibitions by Hardeep Singh and Gulammohammed Sheikh at its Art Passage space next to Nexus Select Citywalk. (knma.org) For anyone planning the weekend, the pattern is straightforward: Mandi House concentrates fair-going and theatre, Okhla offers a foundation-backed group exhibition, and Gurugram adds photography shows and workshops.
