Women make the World a Better Place with Art and Gallery

Indian art consists of a variety of art forms, including painting, sculpture, pottery, and textile arts such as woven silk. Art can communicate information, shape our everyday lives, make a social statement and be enjoyed for aesthetic beauty. A strong sense of design is characteristic of Indian art and can be observed in its modern and traditional forms. An art gallery is a room or a building in which visual art is displayed. The primary purpose of an art gallery is to nurture visual artists, promote their work, and expose them to the public, collectors, media, and cultural institutions. Gallery representation can dramatically increase public recognition and awareness as an emerging artist. Art Gallery representation is like a seal of approval or a branding of sorts, and an indication that they consider art good enough to publicize, exhibit, and present to the world.

Significance of Women Owned Art Galleries:

Throughout the centuries, women have been involved in making art, whether as creators and innovators of new forms of artistic expression, patrons, collectors, sources of inspiration, or significant contributors as art historians and critics. And throughout the history of art, women have often been represented as a subject rather than the creative force behind the artwork. However, they have continually played an important role in supporting their male counterparts and helping them to achieve stellar careers. Female artists are now finally gaining recognition and as a result, we are seeing a rise in the number of women represented by galleries and offered at auction. Women have played a pivotal role, in the enrichment of the arts. Strangely, their contributions always take the co-starring role when it comes to how mainstream media covers the world of art. Women in art are now the ones who’re creating meaningful and innovative works at their own freedom and creativity.
