About Us
Rajiv Menon Contemporary is a new art gallery program focused on perspectives from emerging regions and their diasporas.
With a particular–though not exclusive–focus on artists with origins in South Asia, Rajiv founded the gallery to help bring these dynamic and innovative perspectives to the forefront of culture in Los Angeles. Rajiv is excited to help shape the next generation of collectors, empowering new voices to advocate on behalf of artists.
From making contemporary art more accessible to new art collectors, to placing emerging artists into major museums and private collections, Rajiv Menon Contemporary aims to start a movement and shift our collective culture from all directions.
