Event Description : "Stagealive" a solo show of photographs by Ahmed Firoz, Capturing various moods of Delhi with fine art photography.
Stagealive an exhibition of Fine art photographs of Ahmed Firoz, taken at various points of time take a look at Delhi from a different angle. Delhi is not just a city of monuments and heritage. It has mysteries in the hustles and bustles of the streets with people from all over the world in multiple cultural and social identities to make the place a melting pot of thousands of ideas.
Delhi is a place where festivals and cultural activities keep people engaged and mesmerized. These photographs here, from an expressionist, bring out different cultural identities, moods, grace, beliefs and a sense of belonging of the people, each strengthening the other, in the finest traditions of this city with a monumental past.
What is happening out here in National Capital every day is the reflection of the true character of the city and the measure of its heartbeats. From the flamboyance of the dancers, the joys of the people in a festival, the colorful moods of the visitors to a glorious monument and the stress and vulnerability of the of the performers in the backstage and the little nap one takes in the afternoon after hours of hard work ;
Firoz brings out the heart and soul of the city in all its colors and vibrance. Relax and take some time out and see Delhi from the stories Firoz tells through the moments he has captured with his lens.
About Dr. Ahmed S. Firoz : An economist by profession and known worldwide for his work on energy, metals and natural resources Ahmed Firoz finds some time out to take his camera to capture lives on streets, bring out minute colorful details of nature and find delicate interplay of light and shadows and focus on objects which tell subtle and intense stories which are intense and relevant to the time we are living in.
Apart from documenting lives in this rapidly changing world, his overall body of work presents reality seen from his own unique perspective bringing out the intricate relationship between people and the surroundings. His works allow for a variety of interpretations and he does not believe there cannot be another view different from his own on his works of art.
His photographs are aesthetically pleasing and mysterious but at times carry strong messages to challenge contemporary societal or economic values of our time. The core of his photography strongly depicts the rapidly changing worldly relationships between people and the material world. An expressionist by nature , Firoz is not identified with any specific genre of photography and just believes in the artistic value of his work. His work on a wide range of subjects has been appreciated worldwide.
Firoz has had several photo art exhibitions so far on a large number of subjects .
Firoz studied Economics for his MA, M.Phil and Ph.D. at India’s prestigious Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi. He is heading an important economic and technical research organization related to the steel and mining industries to advise the Indian government on policy and strategic matters.
