Photo exhibition of a teenage life in the 1970s

NEW DELHI: A girl standing next to an ironing board and a bathroom shelf full of razor, soap, brush and shaving cream - ordinary moments and scenes of everyday life come alive in Pablo Bartholomew's photo exhibition. A visual diary of his teenage life, the collection is titled, A Tale of 3 Cities.

Bartholomew clicked these photographs using three cameras: the Russian Zorki, the Pentax Spotmatic and a range of Leicas from his father's collection. New Delhi, Calcutta and Bombay are the three cities where these photographs were taken. The collection is on view till August 17 at Photoink, Faiz Road, Jhandewalan, New Delhi. Entry is free and open to all.

A Padmashree awardee, Bartholomew is a photo journalist and an independent photographer. As a child he was kicked out of school for taking drugs. This was the beginning of his journey as a photographer. Going through the black and white pictures, it is hard to believe that they were taken by a kid just playing with his camera. These randomly-clicked photographs were shot from 1972 to 1982 in natural light, inside homes, under weak bulbs, in dusky exteriors or under dim streetlights.

A collection of 68 outstanding photographs are on display. Some of the more striking photographs are: Boatman with Horse, The Kiss, The C Power Station Ring Road, Horse and Matador Van, Receptionist at OBM office etc. Another remarkable picture clicked from above shows a moving taxi perfectly framed. These snapshots take you back to the 1970s.
