British Indian art dealer to raise funds for LGBTQ rights in India
Hindustan TimesLondon, A British Indian art dealer and activist, who recently reopened his gallery in central London, is planning a major exhibition so that part of its proceeds can go towards continuing his fight for LGBTQ rights across India. British Indian art dealer to raise funds for LGBTQ rights in India Amar Singh, the London-born member of a Kapurthala royal family, relaunched Amar Gallery in Fitzrovia last month with a solo exhibition of the works of French photographer and painter Dora Maar – a muse of celebrated Spanish painter and sculptor Pablo Picasso. In September 2024, Amar Gallery London will be the first gallery to host a solo exhibition of LGBT artist Lawrence Calcagno’s incredible paintings. For Singh, the city of London is an “art form in itself”, bursting with diversity and colour, and therefore he decided to reopen Amar Gallery in the UK capital.
