| Popis: | Considering the context of the economic liberalization in India since the 1980’s and the growing insertion of contemporary Indian art scene in the global art system, this article aims to analyze the reorganization of artistic production at the scale of Bombay metropolitan territory. Three main aspects will be analyzed: the historical development of an art district in the south of the city, the recent changes in the mapping of contemporary art industry and the new territories of contemporary art production. The aim is to deconstruct the territorial hierarchy imposed by the idea of the “art district”, highlight polycentric configurations and the diversity of spaces and interactions that contribute to the dynamism of the art scene. |
