Art’s hot this August and here is where to be this month

August 2025 brings a vibrant lineup of art exhibitions across India, from Chennai to New Delhi and Mumbai. Highlights include Akhil Anand's solo debut "Morphogenesis" at ArtSpace by KalpaDruma in Chennai, blending mathematics, mythology, and nature; the group show "The Personal is Mythical" at LATITUDE 28 in New Delhi, curated by Bhavna Kakar and featuring Bhajju Shyam, Neha Sahai, and Viraj Khanna; the all-women showcase "Objects May Appear Softer" at Black Cube Gallery; antique map and print sales at Nilaya Anthology's Gallery 2; and the Mumbai debut of London's Evoke and Bangalore's Kaash, hosted by Srila Chatterjee.

This roundup matters because it reflects the growing dynamism and diversity of India's contemporary art scene, with venues spanning commercial galleries, pop-up events, and curated group shows. The mix of emerging artists, folk-modern dialogues, women-led exhibitions, and historical collectibles signals a broadening audience and market for visual art in India, making August a key month for collectors, curators, and art enthusiasts.
