Press background on Stellar International Art Foundation
Company profile
Stellar International Art Foundation was established in 2008.
Currently the Foundation comprises over 600 works by an array of Indian and Western Contemporary artists ranging from painting to sculpture.
The collection began in the 1970s when the Choudhrie family began to purchase works of art. This led to intimate relationships with some of India’s most important contemporary artists including M F Husain, Paresh Maity and Jayasri Burman.
At the point the Foundation was created, the collection changed direction to focus on Western and American Contemporary Art, selecting important works by the most important contemporary artists working today.
The Foundation seeks to promote artists within the collection through international exhibition, loans, publications and events.
Indian artist Paresh Maity on Sunday May 22 became the first recipient of the Editor’s Award at a glittering ceremony hosted to celebrate the Eastern Eye Arts, Culture and Theatre Awards (ACTAs).
