Artbeat
This week, the New Art gallery, Pune, displayed a collection of
photographs clicked by some of the city’s budding photographers. The
exhibition called ‘Artbeat’ was put up by ‘Viewfinders’, a group of
ten young photographers, which was formed a year ago for Fergusson
college students. It is now an open group that comes together
regularly to share and learn about their passion through various
activities like regular outings.
“The best thing about Viewfinders is that I meet people here who are
genuinely interested in photography. We share our experiences and
information about everything related to photography.”, says Chaitanya
Puranik , a member who has been photographing for almost two years
now.
Viewfinders was essentially formed to create a platform for these
photographers, and so in the spirit of completing a year, they
organized this exhibition presenting their best work for sale.
Rohit Bhide, a member says that exhibitions like these are a great
platform for amateurs like him. “I joined the group when it was
founded and the whole experience has been very enriching”, he says.
The exhibition displayed portraits, landscapes, still life, and
product photography among others. There was a wide range of themes and
though the lighting in the gallery wasn’t very flattering, the best
ones caught our eye. A half submerged Ganpati, some beautiful shots
from South India, a portrait of a young girl with piercing eyes and a
loosely covered face, were some of the highlights.
*For those who did not catch the exhibition, Eventmay brings to you some of the photographs that were put up.
