Born: 1932 - India, Karnataka, Hunchadakatte Died: Gender: Male Active: India
Veteran Indian photographer with over 40 years experience under his Nikon strap. He has won national and international awards, including the PATA Gold Award (1987); and a prize at the Grand Concours Kodachrome International Contest in Paris (1987). He has also held solo exhibitions including "An Eye for India" (Lyttelton Gallery, London, 1982), "Interiors of Indian Homes" (Museum of Modern Art, Oxford, 1982); "Pratibimba" (Moscow, 1988) and "Derriere les Portes Closes" - "Behind Closed Doors" (La Galerie, La Filature, Mulhouse, France, 1998).
For several years he worked for the Government of India in a variety of capacities - from official photographer to Director of the Photo Division in the Ministry of Information. He has also been a consultant photographer to UNICEF in India. For well over a decade, he has devoted his life to photographing interiors of century old homes in India, a self-funded project. This foray into what constitutes "Indianness" of homes is, perhaps, his major work as a photojournalist.
