Acts of Sharing Art: Conversation with Kiran Nadar
An interview with Kiran Nadar Chairperson, Kiran Nadar Museum of Art (KNMA) and Trustee, Shiv Nadar Foundation. Nadar has profoundly shaped and inspired the Indian art world, becoming a pivotal force in the country's cultural landscape, with an influential vision that has increased the visibility of Indian modern and contemporary art worldwide.
