Ahmedabad Ni Gufa is an underground art gallery in Ahmedabad, India. Designed by the architect Balkrishna Vithaldas Doshi, it exhibits works of the Indian artist Maqbool Fida Husain. The gallery represents a unique juxtaposition of architecture and art.
Architecture of Ahmedabad in Gufa
The gallery space is below ground level. A partially hidden staircase leads to a circular door that opens into a cave-like space. Though designed to display paintings, the cave has no straight walls, instead of using a continuation of the curved dome structure which extends down to the floor. The domes themselves are supported by irregularly shaped inclined columns, similar to those found in natural caves.
