“Other Side India” in Private Magazine

“Whenever people talk about ‘Indian photography’ it obviously leads to a debate and discussion about how appropriate it is to term it as ‘Indian photography’ rather than ‘photography in India’.The question is: to what extent has photography in India been Indianized?”

The contributing photographers of this issue have addressed the complex nature of the time and space evolving around the formation of an identity through works that have crucially explored the issues of marginalization and dislocation.” [Suvendu Chatterjee]
