Overview

Another Lens: Photography and the Emergence of Image Culture(Volume 4 in the India Since the 90s series) situates diverse lens-based practices within a larger orbit of South Asian visual culture. Moving from the street to the cinema, from journalism to contemporary arts, it enters a new era of practitioners communicating with different audiences through experiments, and responding to the visual and political challenges posed by religious supremacism, bigoted hypernationalism and the 'othering' of minorities through legislation, discrimination, micro-aggressions and lethal assault. Another Lens offers new perspectives on photographic production, formats, and exhibition practices that created new viewers and users in the new millennium.
