Last week, art curators got together for a cocktail reception that featured highlights from Sotheby’s upcoming inaugural India Week in London at The Oberoi in New Delhi and at The Taj Mahal Palace in Mumbai. ‘Blue Painting’ by Tyeb Mehta, which hasn’t been shown since 1997, was also showcased at the preview.

India Week is a series of public exhibitions and three dedicated auctions celebrating the works of artists from the country. The exhibit will take place in London from October 2 to 8.

We spotted Gaurav and Pratima Bhatia, Ismat Kanga, Divya Burman and Sakina Mehta, among others.
