Indigo Gets A Museum All Its Own, In Ahmedabad 

Sanjay Lalbhai, chairman and managing director of Arvind Limited

In January this year, I had the good fortune of visiting the upcoming Indigo Museum in Ahmedabad. It was a fabulous experience because the cross-pollination between creativity and the dye indigo that Sanjay Lalbhai, chairman and managing editor of Arvind Limited (formerly Arvind Mills), is promoting, is spellbinding.

My story on this museum appeared on Blouin Artinfo Corp's flagship website, www.blouinartinfo.com, and also in the March edition of BlouinShop magazine.
Here is the "good-looking" story — it looks good mostly because of the amazing images of indigo-inspired, indigo-integrated art works that form the first exhibition of the museum, whose physical space is coming up soon.
It would be wonderful if you read the story and let me know your thoughts on it.
