Art On Show

Art On Show is over in Koparkhairane at Rh 5 Shree Vishal, Plot No 17 in Sector 18. We are situated right opposite Dhirubhai Ambani Knowledge City, which is a huge place compared to our small setup. Our day mostly consists of moving heavy frames around and making sure the lighting isn't making too many shadows on the walls. It’s a lot of physical labor that people don't see when they look at a finished display. The floor is concrete and we have crates stacked up in the corners. We’re not a big gallery with fancy wine; we’re more of a place where the actual work of showing art gets done. Sometimes the nails won't go into the wall straight, or a glass pane breaks during transport, and we just have to deal with it. It’s just a few of us here, and we usually have the radio playing in the background while we work. The area gets busy during shift changes at the Knowledge City, but otherwise, it’s a decent spot. We spend a lot of time cleaning finger marks off glass and sweeping up packing peanuts. It’s a simple life, focused on getting things set up so they look right to anyone walking by. We just do our thing and hope the weather doesn't get too humid for the paper. The morning tea break is the only time the place is actually quiet.
