If you look around you, everything is art. So, you may wonder why a point percentage of objects make their way into beautiful galleries. It's probably because they have a certain kind of audience. We emphasise on the word certain only because art in the city is concentrated in pockets that make it overwhelming for the common person to walk into a gallery. And sometimes, art itself is too overwhelming.

In order to make art accessible, the Piramal Art Museum in collaboration with Phoenix Marketcity will organise a pop-up museum showcasing India's artistic oeuvre as part of The Public Art Programme, which is in its second phase. The first phase of the programme was held in Palladium, Lower Parel, in July 2018, but this year's edition features new pieces and workshops in a part of the city that cannot boast of any museums. "We had a footfall of 1,500 visitors last time, and there were a lot of questions on how the artworks on display were made. So this year, we'll be focusing on materials and process," says Sayali Mundye, one of the curators.
ON: January 18 to February 3
