Mysore/Mysuru: Founder-Trustee of Pratham Mysore and noted photographer Ashvini Ranjan is set to unveil his photo exhibition, ‘In True Colours,’ at the Wadiyar Centre For Architecture (WCFA), located on Krishnaraja Boulevard near Mysuru Law Courts.
The exhibition is scheduled for Nov. 25 and 26, open to the public from 11 am to 5.30 pm. Star of Mysore and Mysuru Mithra Founder-Editor Dr. K.B. Ganapathy will inaugurate the exhibition which will be followed by an exchange of viewer impressions.
Ashvini Ranjan said that the funds raised from selling the displayed photographs will go to the initiatives of Pratham. The collection comprises over 55 photos, 90 percent of them in black and white.
Expressing his inclination towards black and white photography, Ashvini Ranjan said that he drew inspiration from his mentor and guru, legendary photo-journalist T.S. Satyan, who shared a similar affinity for black and white photos. Ashvini Ranjan acknowledges Satyan’s profound influence on his work.
“Satyan’s son T.S. Nagendra will be at my photo exhibition,” Ashvini Ranjan said.
Highlighting the scarcity of exhibition spaces in Mysuru, he has chosen WCFA as a makeshift venue, he said.
