The Museum of Goa (MOG), is a privately owned contemporary arts platform located in Pilerne Industrial Estate, near Calangute, Goa, India. At 1,500 square-meters, it is India's largest private art space.[1].The museum was founded by artist, Subodh Kerkar subodhkerkar. The museum aims to take art to the masses and to grow the Goan arts scene. MOG is without a permanent collection but instead operates as a gallery, temporarily exhibiting and selling works from across the globe. Not exactly a conventional museum, more a house for experimental ideas where quality and not sale-ability is the moving factor[2].
History
MOG opened in November 2015. Invites were mailed to every school and college in the city in an attempt to break the elitism barrier that so often exists in the art world [3]. The three storey structure, designed by architect Dean D'Cruz was completed in 2015,[4] it stands on the plot that originally housed Subodh Kerkars' earlier studio. A garden has also been created and is devoted to sculptures [5]. Mog, a Konkani word, translates to "love".
Exhibitions
MOG opened on 05 November 2015 with the exhibition 'Gopakapattanam', featuring 21 Indian artists work along with that of Subodh Kerkar, which explores Goa's histories before and after the Portuguese period through the lens of contemporary art, [6] curated by Dr.Subodh Kerkar subodhkerkar and Peter Mueller petermueller.
Morphology of Archive will run from 25 January 2016. It will show 30 artists work, 15 Indian, 15 International, whose works will navigate Goa's historical terrain [7].
Educational Initiatives
MOG offers tours of the exhibitions to visitors in addition to offering art classes and organising educational activities such as lectures, films, workshops and residencies.
Philosophy
Subodh Kerkar's goal is to share his passion for contemporary art with the Goan, Indian and international community. As he stated to the Navhind Times "...in a country like India only 1 per cent are aware about the art scenario...". He further informed the newspaper that the practice of visiting museums and galleries should exist right from school age[8]. He explained to the Hindu Times, that "... I am not becoming an art dealer here, most of the countries museums are storehouses, it is such an outdated way of presenting works of art. I tried to persuade the local government but nothing happened, so I did it myself..."[9]
