A Different Lens
Devalina Guha Roy wrote in to say that she and a group of other photographers are showing their work in Philadelphia. The show, an Asian Arts Initiative called A Different Lens runs from now through June 3.
“A Different Lens exhibition, a collaboration with the Philadelphia chapter of the Asian American Journalists Association (AAJA), focuses on the unique perspectives of Asian American photographers and challenges the distinction between photography as an art form and photojournalism. The Asian Arts Initiative is interested in how Asian American photographers depict and portray Asian and Asian American culture and experience, particularly in terms of people, locations, and objects/artifacts.”

Bose Pacia
Via Sonia Jose
“Established in 1994, Bose Pacia was the first gallery in the West specializing in contemporary art from South Asia. During the past decade Bose Pacia has held over 30 exhibitions and is internationally regarded for promoting the South Asian avant-garde. Visual artists from South Asia work within a wholly unique space – one that is informed by a multitude of cultures, languages and religions and shaped by a complex past and dynamic present. Bose Pacia fosters an active discourse between these artists and the international art community by featuring exhibitions that contextualize contemporary art from this geographic region within its rich artistic traditions and current social tensions.”
Sonia's fiancee won the coveted Bose Pacia Prize last year. Sunoj D, hope to hear from you directly so that I may exhibit your prize-winning work here on Tiffinbox.
