For someone living in the Google age, it’s slow business finding information about Indian phtographers. Thanks to the small number of people who pointed me to a few photographers of note, I got a modest start. But very modest. (Mostly just Raghubir Singh and Prashant Panjiar.)
So I’ve decided to try a different track for a while, searching for and sending queries to various galleries in India. No responses yet — no doubt it got stuck in some spam filter or another. But at the Cymroza Gallery I found a few more names:
- Bhalu Mondhe
- Sabrina and Moutushi
And Wikipedia has a smallish list of Indian photographers, including
- Darogha Ubbas Alli
- F. W. Champion
- Lala Deen Dayal
- Victor George
- Atul Kasbekar
- Madhaviah Krishnan
- Raghu Rai
- B. S. Ranga
- Sandip Ray
- Sukumar Ray
- Sooni Taraporevala
Still . . . more foreigners publishing images of India than Indians themselves.
