Briefly describe the history of the museum, its collection and donors.

The Amar Nath Sehgal Private Collection is a repository of artworks and archives of the modern Indian Modern artist
Amar Nath Sehgal (1922-2007). The collection offers a platform to learn about and engage with the works and time of Amar Nath Sehgal.

The Collection intends to create a deeper awareness and appreciation of the artist's contribution to Indian art through research, documentation and scholarship—not only around this collection but in a broader context, through stimulating, engaging and innovative outreach programs and grants—to enrich, develop and foster a dialogue between the art of the past and of future generations.

The curatorial vision of the collection on display helps decode the artist's work, stretched over nearly six decades. The display also points towards the intrinsic versatility and the cyclical nature of his artistic investigations, drawing attention to his constant vocation for exploring the expressive possibilities of any medium.
