In September 2026, the New Delhi art and design scene is characterized by several major exhibitions and a shift toward immersive presentation styles.

Various galleries are hosting diverse showcases, including GAP Contemporary’s ‘The Still Life of Sentiments’, Vadehra Art Gallery’s ‘Women on the Edge of Time’, and solo exhibitions by Sri Lankan artist Pradeep Thalawatta and Thamshangpha ‘Merci’ Maku. Additionally, Akar Prakar has opened a new space in Defence Colony with its ‘Becoming’ group exhibition.

A notable trend in the capital is the movement away from traditional gallery formats toward domestic, experiential settings. GAP Contemporary has utilized a 5,000 sq. ft. space designed as a lived-in home to integrate art with furniture and lighting. Similarly, HōmAnAn has opened a 4,000 sq. ft. experiential showhouse in South Delhi to showcase homegrown Indian brands through texture and scale within a functional domestic environment.
