  1. You can Experience Best of Indian Art Collection through KNMA’s Digital Mediums Indian art magazines and popular Indian art fair have been appreciating KNMA's effort to promote art. Established at the initiative of the avid art collector Kiran Nadar, the Kiran Nadar Museum of Art (KNMA) opened its doors to the public in January 2010, as the first private museum of art exhibiting modern and contemporary works from India and the sub- continent. Located in the heart of New Delhi, India’s capital city, KNMA is a non-commercial, not-for-profit organization intends to exemplify the dynamic relationship between art and culture through its exhibitions, publications, educational, and public programs. During the Corona lockdown period Kiran Nadar Museum of Art (KNMA) Delhi, India has put glimpses of its Indian art collection on social media platforms like YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram. As works from the best of Indian artists can be explored online one feels to be experiencing a virtual Indian art fair during Corona lockdown.
