BUY INDIAN ART ONLINE OR IN PERSON
In recent years, there has been a tremendous uptick in the Indian art market, with an overall increase in collectors as well as a growing number of galleries, art fairs and museums dedicated to South Asian artists. So while buying Indian art has never been easier, it has also never been more confusing.
As an established Indian art gallery and art advisory, below are our tips for buying Indian art online or in person.
How to Buy Indian Art Online
There is an abundance of Indian paintings for sale online, so you are almost guaranteed to find a painting that suits your taste, size requirements and price range. Buying art online is also a great opportunity for collectors who do not live near a gallery or cannot travel to an art fair.
However, there are some disadvantages to buying original Indian art online. Without seeing the work in person, the painting may not turn out according to your expectations. We also recommend that collectors research online galleries before making a purchase.
At Laasya Art, we frequently work with remote collectors all over the world and pride ourselves on attentive customer service to help smooth the process of buying art online. You can browse our collection of Indian art for sale here.
How to Buy Indian Art in Person
While there is a nearly limitless inventory of paintings online, the main advantage of buying an original Indian painting from a brick-and-mortar art gallery is that you can view the painting in person, so there will be no surprises later.
How to Commission Indian Art
Sometimes, there is not a readily available painting that suits a client’s requirements for size or their particular vision for the space. In such cases, commissioning an Indian artist may be the solution. At Laasya Art, we work closely with clients around the world to help bring their vision to life, from refining the concept to tracking progress on the painting and coordinating the delivery. Check out our page on commissioning artwork for more information.
Collecting with an Indian Art Advisor
Many clients benefit from working with an art consultant who can educate about the types of Indian paintings and provide interior design guidance. Laasya Art does offer art advisory services and curation services. We can recommend original paintings that would complement your home, commission artwork by a leading Indian artist, or help you source a painting beyond what is listed on our website.
