Kiran Nadar Museum of Art a contemporary museum in India is currently hosting a centennial exhibition showcasing works by prominent Indian artist Sayed Haider Raza. The exhibition is named SAYED HAIDER RAZA- TRAVERSING SPACE- HERE & BEYOND CENTENNIAL EXHIBITION.

Raza’s life transited from a small village called Kakaiya in central India to the city of Nagpur, to metropolises like Mumbai and Paris to finally reside in the rural commune of Gorbio in southern France only to return to India to spend the last years of his life in Delhi, painting every single day until his passing at the age of 94 in New Delhi, 2016.

Raza’s art traversed the space between origin and return, between the here and the beyond, both literally and metaphorically. His simple yet complex manifestations iterate the impossibility of knowing reality, as the Absolute manifests itself in infinite ways. ~Roobina Karode.

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 art museum in India 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 as one of the best museum in India as a non-commercial, not-for-profit organization intends promoting fine arts in India to exemplify the dynamic relationship between art and culture through its exhibitions, publications, educational, and public programs.

The ever-growing collection of KNMA is largely focused on significant trajectories. Its core collection highlights a magnificent generation of 20th century Indian painters from the post-Independent decades and equally engages the different art practices of the younger contemporaries.
