Sundaram Tagore


Listen Later

Sundaram Tagore comes from the most prominent Indian family in the arts for their awe-inspiring contribution to the sub-continent's culture, including Nobel-prize winning writer Rabindranath Tagore. Sundaram grew up in a home that mirrored the salons of Europe, where artists and intellectuals of all forms would drop in at his family house in Calcutta for an open-invitation lunch. He migrated to Canada in his late teens and made his way to the US, where he would eventually study. He landed in New York post-undergrad and leveraged his passion for art history into roles working with galleries. He spent a year in Venice establishing one of the most popular exhibits for their Biennale. Subsequent to that, he went to Oxford to pursue his doctoral studies. Sundaram opened a gallery in NY roughly two decades ago with a theme of cross-cultural representation. It has expanded to multiple locations and a global footprint. His personal artistic expression remains documentary film-making; his most recent endeavor called Tiger City celebrates architect Louis Kahn's last contribution to humanity.
