Featuring the Nemai Ghosh collection housed at the Delhi Art Gallery, which Eka helped to archive has been put up. Having sifted through nearly 120,000 photographs from Ghosh’s burgeoning archive (which the Delhi Art Gallery, or DAG, acquired in 2006), curator Pramod Kumar K.G. has selected around 250 which will be on display at DAG. Timed for the 100 years of Indian cinema, the show brings together a range of photographs—iconic, rare and never-seen-before—mostly of Ray and his actors, with occasional glimpses of other directors. “Many of these images are iconic through visual recall,” says Pramod.
Nemai Ghosh: Satyajit Ray And Beyond will be on from 8-28 January, 10.30am-7pm (Sundays closed), at the Delhi Art Gallery, 11, Hauz Khas Village, New Delhi (46005300).
