Kiran Nadar Museum of Art

In all honesty, this place has a potential to be great and some exhibitions have been stellar, when curated by eminent curators. Sometimes the “museum” hosts shows that feel gimmicky and sans crowd control. The last time I visited this place, it was on a weekday for the “Walking through a Songline” exhibit, I had to literally shout at the Gen Z visitors to keep quiet at the immersive digital installation which had a notice outside requesting people to maintain silence. Hardly any “museum” staff kept order, it was utter chaos with these kids barely reading about what they saw, only interested in taking selfies having come there dressed to the nines for their Instagram reels. No one was stopping them from using their Camera Flash in the dark rooms… Also, if you do plan to visit, take care that you don’t go on the last day, because they start taking down the Art a day before it ends. I’ve made that mistake before. So disappointing to go all the way and find it’s over before they said it would be.

It was an amazing experience visiting the kiran nadar museum of Art. Recommended to go for all the age groups. The illusions and illustrations displayed there were amazing and provided a very different one of a kind experience. We went on sunday and there was very little crowd. There was amazing art and craft activities to do as an individual and group too. Visited on Weekend Wait time No wait Reservation recommended No

Best place for getting your first taste of Indian contemporary art

It is such a great space but it's such a pity that they ruin your experience by having Security Guards follow you everywhere you go. You constantly feel watched. Went inside one of the smaller audio-visual rooms separated from the main gallery by curtains, and the guard literally stood at the door with the curtains drawn. What is the point of the curtains and the surveillance cameras installed everywhere? I have been to almost all museums in Delhi and been to some of the best museums around the world, and never faced such harrasment. Visited on Weekday Wait time No wait Reservation recommended No

The artworks are really mesmerizing. Many places like the underpass walls besides others have been painted by KNMA. (The underpass while going from Lajpat Nagar to AIIMS). The one nearby Haldiram's, Lajpat Nagar, New Delhi. Visited on Weekend Wait time No wait Reservation recommended Not sure

When will the next exhibition start and will end? Can u tell me in details? I want to visit the museum and how would I know when the exhibition will start and end? And can I get a free entry there without doing anything? I have heard that I need to register first before entering?

Used to love visiting KNMA at Noida. Hoping they open another centre here, so regular visits and workshops can continue for my family. While we do visit the Saket museum from time to time, the frequency is limited, given the distance. Would be heartening to see KNMA spreading to more locations, to make art accessible and reachable to more people rather than it being approachable on fewer occasions Visited on Weekend Wait time No wait Reservation recommended Not sure
