50 years on, Mumbai's Pundole Art Gallery remains in sync with the times

What prompted you to shift your auction house, Pundole’s, to Colaba?
The move to our new space at Tanna House in Colaba is prompted by the need for us to have a larger dedicated space for our auction business, Pundole’s, which we set up three years ago. Until now, our viewings and auctions were held at the Jamshed Bhabha Theatre in the National Centre for Performing Arts (NCPA). While that is a beautiful space, it isn’t always possible to display all the art works that we sell in the auctions. A dedicated exhibition space will allow us to build displays that show the art in optimal surroundings and for longer periods of time. It will also allow us to do more events throughout the year and engage more with the local art community.
