Bagri Foundation

The Bagri Foundation, established in 1990, is a family foundation driven by a spirit of curiosity. Our vision is to cultivate a meaningful space for Asian culture to thrive, shift perspectives and deepen connections. The Foundation works within a network of leading cultural organisations who share this mission, to give artists and experts from across Asia, wider visibility on the global stage. We champion diverse artistic initiatives that challenge and inspire us and our audiences. Through grants and strategic partnerships, we realise unique, high-quality programmes which share traditional and contemporary Asian culture.

Recent partnerships and projects include the major exhibition Asian Bronze: 4000 years of Beauty at the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam; Major support for the opening programme by new Artistic Director Indhu Rubasingham at the National Theatre featuring Hamlet and The Jungle Book; a co-production, Thikra: Night of Remembering , by Akram Khan Company; and the first UK solo presentation of Indonesian artist Citra Sasmita: Into Eternal Land at the Curve Gallery, Barbican, London.

In addition to the public-facing arts programme, three generations of the family continue to support education, poverty relief and health initiatives.
