If you know anything about Indian art, you’ve probably heard of MF or Maqbool Fida Husain, one of India’s most popular modern artists. Though people compare Husain to Picasso, historically, his paintings have not fetched the prices that Picasso’s do.
Well, that’s until now. The Indian art market is seeing its moment. From 15 crores rupees in 2000, the Indian art market is worth 3,000 crore rupees today. And it’s only going to keep growing. Estimates say that by 2030, the market will grow to 10,000 crore rupees.
