AboutEst. 1975
Founded in 1975 by Ramesh and Urmil Kapoor, Kapoor Galleries Inc specializes in Indian & Himalayan Arts. It has been and continues to be an invaluable resource for museum quality works of art from India and the Subcontinent. The gallery has been instrumental in developing major museum collections as well as distinguished private collections worldwide. The gallery has placed works in The Metropolitan Museum of Art, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Norton Simon Museum, Art Institute of Chicago, San Diego Museum of Art, and the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts among others.
Joined by their son Suneet, who studied Indian Art at School of Oriental and African Studies [SOAS], the gallery presents an annual Spring Asia Week NY exhibition, showcasing important and beautiful works of art to a focused audience.
In 2013 Ramesh and Urmils grandson Sanjay became the fourth consecutive generation to join the family business. After completing the Indian Art course at SOAS Sanjay has been integral in developing the gallerys presence on the web and various social media services.
Together they have developed a very strong network of collectors and curators. The gallery is open to the public and appointments are suggested.
