Event Details : Launch of A Photography Quarterly Issue 3: 'Imaginaries: Exploring Photo-Art' and photography exhibition.

PIX: A Photography Quarterly is about investigating and engaging with contemporary photographic practice in India. It is a theme based series, attempting to investigate how photography remains part of our daily lives, and equally how images seem to reflect our fragile yet tangible connections with the world at large. PIX explores photography as an evolving, incongruous medium, allowing viewers and practitioners to question ‘subjectivity’ as such. The theme for the third edition of the quarterly will be Imaginaries: Exploring Photo-Art. 'Imaginaries' addresses the 'creation' of images, where photographers reflect, re-orient, fashion and form hybrid compositions as an Art Practice. 'Imaginaries' may even be defined in terms of the unfamiliar, unusual, transient and temporary. A selection of photographs showcasing this theme will be on display to launch the volume. Photo Art today is a manifestation of digital imaging, design, collages, mixed media and installation work. As a result, the works in the exhibition are thematically breaking into or away from 'identity' issues, gender constructs and deconstruct conventional ways of viewing space.
