Book Description
Though there are countless albums of photographs of India which include images of bazaars, this book is the first which focuses exclusively on India's commercial districts. Dinesh Khanna's work is about colour, texture, people, and a pleasure in visuality: the use of sight rather than words as a way of knowing the world. The brilliant colours and structured mayhem that foreigners associate with India- the Rajasthani turbans and the gypsy women, the bored camels and the lurid advertisements-are as much a part of Dinesh's visual vocabulary as that other, more contemplative aspect of India: the quiet moments, the melancholy shadows, the empty spaces between the bodies in a crowd.
