One has often wished for a comprehensive map that would lead art lovers to the important galleries in Delhi. Now Japa Arts Initiative provides maps that makes gallery hopping easy not only in Delhi but in Mumbai as well. It also takes care of the business of documenting,showcasing and evaluating ones art collection for a handsome fee.
Apart from being curated,an art collection must be well-documented,maintained and showcased. Bearing these factors in mind,we offer customised end-to-end solutions for Indian art collectors, says its 35-year-old CEO and a former director of Bodhi Art Gallery,Arvind Vijaymohan.
Japa Arts will bring out maps on a monthly basis,and these will also be e-mailed to select art collectors on Vijaymohans mailing list.
It also plans to launch a Corporate Art Campaign,where it will advise high-profile corporate collectors like HDFC and Deutsche Bank on building a powerful image of their collection.
Keeping in mind the slump in the economy,Japa will also advise on downsizing and de-accessioning, says Vijaymohan,whose online presence reaches out to Indians across the subcontinent. The Japa website,japaarts.in,provides an overview of the activities of the art initiative; while his blog,indianartblog.blogspot.com,gives readers his view on the developments in the Indian art scenario.
He shares his experiences of international art ventures,like the much-hyped Damien Hirst and Levi Strauss apparel tie-up.
Next,he chronicles the ongoing work at the National Gallery of Modern Arts new wing and takes stock of the auctions.
Apart from our input as art evaluators,we also provide advice on conservation of art works and we are working on a loan and donation programme wherein Indian collectors can show significant art works at museums worldwide.
After all,what good is a fabulous art collection if its not shared with the rest of the world? asks Vijaymohan.
