The Hotz Group’s foray into art began with the Vistaar and Seven Art Gallery in New Delhi. In 2012 the group acquired a significant majority stake in Nature Morte and the entire art business was consolidated under the Nature Morte brand.
Nature Morte was founded in New York in 1982 by Artist and Gallerist Peter Nagy and expanded to New Delhi in 1997. Nature Morte became synonymous in India with challenging and experimental forms of art; championing conceptual, lens-based, and installation genres and representing a generation of Indian artists who went on to international exposure. Today, Nature Morte is the leader in its field in India with increasing visibility around the world, representing many of the most accomplished contemporary artists working in India today, fostering the most promising new talents, and introducing the works of international artists to the country.
