Harry Gruyaert: India attests to the photographer’s clarity of style: his interest in story, public spaces, and surprising scenes, all punctuated with vibrant colors. From bustling streets in New Delhi or Calcutta, to the modest villages of Tamil Nadu and Rajasthan, and the great religious city of Varanasi, “color must be essential,” Gruyaert says. Transcending stereotypes, these images show some of the many faces of India through Gruyaert’s unparalleled vision.
This collection includes striking images of women in purple saris beating grain, dyers busy at smoky vats, encampments of shepherds preparing for a new day, and other scenes of daily life. In keeping with Gruyaert’s oeuvre, these scenes capture the sensory atmosphere, with subtle chromatic variations, painting a revelatory picture that neither romanticizes nor exoticizes the subject.”
