What is Deccan Footprints?

Deccan Footprints is a the first of its kind, an online journal that introduces and showcases Indian artists and their work, ranging from folk art to contemporary art. It is not just a journal for artists, however, it is a journal for anyone interested in the arts and is a great tool for teaching both traditional and contemporary styles.

Deccan Footprints gives a voice to Indian art, helping to promote it on the international stage and present upcoming and established Indian artists to a wider audience. For artists looking for more exposure or for collectors looking for prints or original pieces, this is a great place to start. It takes the conversations that once only happened in museums and galleries and places them in a forum that is much more accessible. The barriers between the artist and his audience are taken away, allowing connections to be made around the world.

We bring both original artworks and limited open edition folk and contemporary art straight from the studio or printing house, right into the hands of art enthusiasts and collectors. Based in Naperville, IL, near Chicago, we bridge the gap between Indian artists and the rest of the artistic community.

 

Art Advisory Services

In addition to bringing together the best of both contemporary and ethnographic works, Deccan Footprints also provides art advisory services, helping to place pieces with collectors, casual buyer and Interior Designers, no matter what style of art they are looking for. This is a service for artists and buyers alike, helping artists to find loyal patrons and helping buyers to find a piece that fits both into their homes and offices and into their budgets making sure they get exactly what they need, from India’s wide variety of artists and art styles.
