About this book

India recently celebrated sixty years of independence and has become a great economic power, yet its image is still all too often limited to colourful clichŒ̂đ of brightly coloured saris and postcards of the Taj Mahal. To sweep away our preconceived ideas this book presents images by Indian and Western photographers, both internationally renowned artists and rising talents, who focus their gaze on India today. Intimate images, urban settings, a burgeoning middle class: an unknown India is revealed in this landmark photographic anthology of the country today.
