The exhibition is to be held at the NGMA Mumbai from 6 January to 20 March 2016 co-curated by Rahul Mehrotra, Ranjit Hoskote and Kaiwan Mehta. The exhibition will present the nature of contemporary architecture in India within a larger historical overview since Independence.

It is a project of the Urban Design Research Institute (UDRI), Mumbai.
The exhibition will present the nature of contemporary architecture in India within a larger historical overview since Independence. It will not only map emerging practices but also discuss the aspirations they represent and stimulate a conversation on architecture among the architectural fraternity, patrons and public at large. Embodying a spectrum of positions that characterize architectural production in India, the content is intended to be provocative and make explicit the multiple, and often simultaneously valid, streams of architectural thought and engagement that truly represents the pluralism of India.
