Book Description
Two generations after the exultation of Independence and the concurrent horrors
of Partition, contemporary artists mine the uneasy history of photography in
India as a means to challenge outmoded narratives, share hidden stories, and
make personal connections with tradition. Taking history into their own hands,
figures such as Nandan Ghiya, Gauri Gill, Jitish Kallat, Annu Palakunnathu
Matthew, Madhuban Mitra and Manas Bhattacharya, Pushpamala N., Raqs Media
Collective, Vivan Sundaram, and Surekha draw on a diverse range of sources, from
ethnographic photographs made at the height of the British occupation to
hand-painted studio portraits and stills from Bollywood movies. Weighing the
influence of the global against the draw
