Art works Auctioned online

June 18th and 19th Saffronart features an online auction covering 140 works by 67 modern and contemporary Indian artists. These will be accompanied by preview events in New York and Mumbai. This is one of those rare occurrences in the Indian art world, when both modern and contemporary artists are being showcased in the same market to the world at large. "Essentially both these styles of art have traditionally different buyers in the market. The European and non-Indian buyers seem to identify more with contemporary Indian artists, and hence their demand is currently more in the west. The Indian resident and non-residential buyers have a greater connect and nostalgic feeling toward Indian modernists. Thus the works of artists like Souza, Raza, and Hussain amongst others fetch such high values.

Examining objections to the jurisdictional net for merger regulation under Indian competition law

Soulcalibur IV Skips India, Fallout 3 To Follow?

The Angry Pixel writes: "Well, what more can we say?

Since Ubisoft doesn't believe in offering any sort of sales concession when it comes to Indian markets, and e-Xpress, like anyone else, wouldn't want non-existent profit margins, Indian gamers eager for Soulcalibur IV will now have to look at Play-Asia (as usual) for their imports.
