APRE Art House was founded in 2016 by Ms. Prerna Jain. The Gallery was formalized in the year of 2021 and shifted into a new exhibition space in Colaba in 2022. APRE has held sevral exhibitions across New York, New Delhi and Mumbai. The Gallery also runs an Artist Residency Programme at a 10,000 sq. ft. Facility in Mumbai. For it’s inaugural exhibition in Colaba, Shadow Lands, the Gallery executed a programme of Theatre, Studio Visit, Film Screening, Slam Poetry, walkthroughs and discussions. Since, every show is accompanied by a series of lectures, educational engagements, experimental workshops and special events that foster a passion for contemporary art.
APRE came about as the fruition of Ms. Jain’s long-term vision to contribute to the diverse and multi-layered space of modern and contemporary art, and to create an innovative platform for its understanding and outreach both nationally and globally. The Gallery is a two- floored independent structure, with a terrace that is used for the promotion of various interdisciplinary practices.
The gallery has a dynamic schedule of exhibitions throughout the year. The Art House is envisioned as not just a gallery, but a platform to build networks of support and strengthen stakeholder relationships through professional channels. In contextualizing and addressing the crucial needs in the arts sector, the gallery aims to integrate itself and provide stability within a constantly morphing socio-cultural topography.
APRE offers art enthusiasts and connoisseurs the opportunity to engage with a meticulously selected range of art in diverse mediums and styles. APRE aims to promote a plural arts culture through regular physical and virtual showcases while also continuing to develop public programming. The Gallery hosts various programmes including: The White Table Editions, From The Studio and Interims. It also offers support to its artists through Residency Programmes, mentorship programmes, legal support and international presence management.
APRE Art House works to continuously build and grow a network of artists, patrons, and collaborators in order to magnify the outreach of the arts and facilitate newer definitions of art practice and viewership.
