India Art Fair

There are a lot of downsides to being in Delhi: noise, traffic, pollution. But this is also the cultural capital of India, and on any given day there are dozens of activities that allow you to engage in India culture:  music, film premiers, dance. You name it.This weekend we made our way to the India Art Fair, a world renowned one weekend exhibition of art galleries from around the world. The student who was our guide when we first came to Delhi, Rhea, happened to be working at the Fair, and so got us free VIP passes. There were well over a hundred galleries with works on display, tucked away into separate cubicles. In the back was the VIP lounge with a wine bar, and outside a couple of tents serving snacks, desserts and coffee. It was a very elegant affair, and as Jane said, it felt like we were not in Delhi. It was a great day. Making our way home was another story
