INDIAN MINUTE CAMERA PHOTOGRAPHERS

NDIAN MINUTE CAMERA PHOTOGRAPHERS
by Sean Foley (author) with Lukas Birk (photography / design)

17x21cm / 296 Pages
Hardcover – Clothbound
Edition of 600 with 20 Special Edition

 

Indian Minute Camera Photographers explores the life-journeys of four photographers in New Delhi, Jaipur and Pushkar.

Minute cameras were once widely used in all corners of India providing on-the-spot black and white images for identity cards or souvenir photography in parks, holy sites, tourist spots, and a plethora of street-side pitches.

In general, the story of the minute camera photographer has largely been forgotten in the history books as their work primarily catered to a cliental that could not afford the more prestigious and well documented studio photographs.
