Nestled in a corner of a bylane at Kala Ghoda, with its white French windows and intricate patterns, the Delhi Art Gallery (DAG) resembles the many buildings that have a similar structure and design at Pondicherry. Inside, the gallery boasts of a spacious space that is spread over four levels. As I enter the building on a Wednesday morning, owner Ashish Anand is busy supervising the workers who are putting up the paintings on display while curator Kishore Singh is attending to last-minute calls. With just two days left for its opening night, the gallery is abuzz with activity.u00a0
