The gallery’s focus has always been research-led. It has documented the works of the finest twentieth century artists, lifting them out of recent oblivion to get them their due appreciation while aligning them with various art movements across the country. Ranging all the way from pre-modern art to modern art practices and tracking the changes in response to constant innovation and experimentation, DAG’s long-term perspective has been at the forefront of most of its activities.

- Click Art Museum
Click Art Museum is based in India’s biggest Snow Kingdom at VGP; East Coast Road. It will also be India’s first of its kind 3D interactive “Trick Art” museum! Art has been perceived only as an artistic, sensuous, divine or as a collective asset so far. What when art becomes funny, comical and even interactive? Trick Art is one such unique art that becomes complete only with a participant than its creator. Puzzling right! Trick Art is also known as “Optical Art” or “3D art” which are mostly two-dimensional images that give the illusion of the third dimension inviting participatory actions from a visitor and is painted with clever angles for taking photographs. Art has never been so experiential and fun-filled before!
