I would guess this is coloring his statements...<BR/><BR/>As for the Blind Spot edition, like you I applaud it's intent, and there are some beautiful images in it, but on the whole I found it somewhat uneven.

He and I were alone in the gallery and were able to converse at length.<BR/><BR/>His pictures in his show, <A>href="http://www.bodhiart.in/artists/prabuddha/longing.html">Longing</A> were, IMO, made by a photographer who is '<I>behaving honourably and honestly and meticulously</I>.'<BR/><BR/>Das Gupta states that "My work is definitely very untrendy." and even though he is exhigiting in a very good gallery in Chelsea, changes are good that it will be overlooked by many, if not most of those who frequent and inhabit the 'art bubble' world.<BR/><BR/>Afterall, he and I had the gallery to ourselves on an otherwise very busy Saturday afternoon in Chelsea.gravitas et nugalishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14490244858742224956noreply@blogger.com
