Art Mumbai — Three Consecutive Seasons

"Building the Foundation for a World-Class Art Fair"

Ground-Up Infrastructure, Museum-Grade Engineering & Custom Gallery Fabrication at Mahalaxmi Racecourse

For three consecutive seasons, Crew Collective has been the proud production partner for Showtime Group, building the ground-up infrastructure for Art Mumbai right from the fair’s very first edition. Turning an open-air racecourse into a pristine, museum-grade exhibition space requires a careful mix of heavy-duty engineering and delicate precision.

Building the Pavilion

We engineered and leveled massive German hangar structures over the racecourse's uneven ground, supported by multi-layered flooring designed to create a world-class indoor exhibition space.

Controlling the Climate

We managed the HVAC systems round the clock to maintain stable temperature and humidity levels inside the pavilion, protecting irreplaceable contemporary artworks from Mumbai's coastal climate.

Fair Highlights

Building Every Booth

We oversaw the fabrication of dozens of individual gallery booths, ensuring every wall was perfectly straight, structurally sound, and seamlessly finished. Handling Every Custom Request

Handling Every Custom Request

While each gallery received a standard package of walls and track lighting, many required custom additions. We tracked, coordinated, and delivered every request from angled walls and specialty paint to additional lighting without slowing down the overall build.

Behind the Scenes

Creating stable micro-environments inside a temporary outdoor setup is an intense engineering hurdle. To prevent structural shifting over turf, our site crews executed continuous leveling checks across thousands of square meters of sub-flooring. Simultaneously, our electrical teams deployed isolated multi-tiered power backups to guarantee that lighting grids and delicate climate control modules never experienced even a micro-second of interruption during public viewing hours.
Good production is meant to disappear. It's the quiet, solid foundation that lets the artists and galleries take center stage.
