Jaiveer Johal, an Indian art collector and logistics heir based in Chennai, discusses the current boom in the Indian art market in an interview for Artnet Pro's newsletter "The Asia Pivot." Johal, who founded the Avtar Foundation for the Arts in 2024 to promote Modern and contemporary South Asian art, notes that auction records for Indian Modern masters have reached new highs while contemporary galleries like Experimenter, Nature Morte, and Jhaveri Contemporary are expanding internationally. He observes that rising prices are pricing out many collectors, including himself, as institutions and wealthy buyers drive demand.
