Aligning with significant artistic and cultural events in the Indian calendar is crucial for enhancing the visibility of French artists and connecting them with local audiences. It fosters opportunities for interaction and creative exchange between Indian and French participants.
Each year, the Indian cultural season witnesses numerous collaborations between major Indian cultural entities and France, such as the Serendipity Arts Foundation, India Art Fair, St+Art, Kochi Muziris Biennale, Chennai Photo Biennale, Prakriti Foundation, Prameya Art Foundation, and Public Arts Trust of India, among others.
This also includes producing performing art tours of the latest and best French productions in collaboration with the network of Alliances Françaises. Together, throughout the year, we celebrate major French cultural rendezvous such as Fête de la Musique, Digital November, Wall Art, and more.
