A Gigantic fibreglass head depicting an immortal baby born into new media, an oversized rubber stamp that gives a sly nod towards the bureaucratic system\u2019s general direction, a human sculpture that sits calmly meditating in front of a wheel spraying mud on it and a steel-body tree that explores the building disconnect with nature \u2013 these are just a few of the exhibits that will be on display at the India Art Fair, 2014.
\nInto its sixth year, the fair is one of the most anticipated events in the Indian art calendar apart from being the \u201cmost important platform for facilitating dialogue exchange and trade in the region\u201d for the arts fraternity. And this year, it promises to stretch the very limits of aesthetic imagination by collating creative genius across incredibly disparate genres.
\nOver 20 exhibiting booths and one thousand artists will showcase their vision through a range of contemporary and genre-bending works. Also, as many as 24 unique art projects have been lined up. But despite the immense scale of most of the projects one doesn\u2019t feel too far removed from the artists\u2019 ideas, and that may just be the beauty of IAF 2014.
\nHere\u2019s a sampler of what the cognoscenti can expect this time around.
