Description

The Museum of Art & Photography (MAP) opened its doors to the public on February 18th, 2023. Divided into five storeys, the museum includes art galleries, an auditorium, a library, a multimedia gallery, a technology centre, a sculpture courtyard, a learning centre, a specialised research and conservation facility, a gift store, a café, a member's lounge and a terrace alfresco restaurant-Cumulus.

MAP is a space for all to belong. We strive to make art accessible and hope to change the general perception of museums in the country and help build a museum-going culture. We at MAP believe that engaging with art can help us understand ourselves, our community, and the world we live in.

MAP is custodian to a growing collection of over 60,000 artworks that take viewers on a comprehensive journey of Indian art and culture. Predominantly from South Asia and dating from the 10th century to the present, the collection includes paintings, sculptures, textiles, photographs and more.
