The theme for this edition is Fauna of Mirrors , an old Chinese myth that talks about an alternate universe that exists behind the mirror, another dimension which is home to unknown creatures and unknown worlds. Pushpamala N. explores the myth to see if the practice of photography is a reflection of modern life, creating a parallel world of images \u2014 familiar yet strange, perhaps friendly and intimate, sometimes mysterious and hostile \u2014 but always magical.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"story-block\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<div class=\"story-block\">\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">\u201cThe Chennai Photo Biennale seeks to expand the field of photography with a terrific array of photo-artists who use the language of photography to speak to the world. Set in important historical and contemporary venues across the city, the biennale will be a thought-provoking, spectacular and entertaining public festival,\u201d says Pushpamala N.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"story-block\">\n<div class=\"story-block\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Speaking about the biennale, the founder of Chennai Photo Biennale, Varun Gupta, said \u201cAs a photographer and artist, I have travelled to photo festivals and art biennales around the world and returned inspired by the quality of exhibits and the sense of community that these events foster. Chennai Photo Biennale aims to establish a much-needed home for photography in India which brings together practitioners, allied arts, curators, gallerists and the general public to elevate the medium in the region.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"story-block\">\n<div class=\"story-block\">\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">During the biennale, a two-day International Photography Conference will be held on March 16 &#8211; 17 at the Egmore Museum Theatre. Open to all, the title of the conference is Light Writing: The Photographic Image Reloaded. The conference will include a dynamic programme of artists, curators and scholars from different parts of the world who will present papers and discuss the state of photography today. Speakers include Ashwini Asokan (India), Diwas Raja KC (Nepal), Emeka Okereke (Nigeria), Kristoffer Gansing (Germany), M.K. Raghavendra (India), Rashmi Sawhney (India), P.

The CPB Education Program was launched in November 2018 and has run iPhone photo camps in schools across Chennai with 265 students (ages 10-16) which will also continue after the biennale. An advanced residential photography workshop with 25 selected students was conducted between February 1-3 and the resulting works will be showcased at the biennale.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"story-block\">\n<div class=\"story-block\">\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">The biennale aims to engage and enrich diverse communities and encourage viewing photography in a more democratic and accessible way. By energising venues all over Chennai, the biennale hopes to enhance the cultural offering of the city to residents and visitors alike. Locations include Senate House \u2014 the University of Madras, Government College of Fine Arts, Government Museum, Madras Literary Society, Southern Railway: Chennai Mass Rapid Transit System (MRTS), Cholamandal Artists\u2019 Village and Art Houz Gallery with many of the exhibitions adapted to the exceptional architecture and ambience of the venues.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"story-block\">\n<div class=\"story-block\">\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">The biennale includes international artists, many of whom have been supported by Foreign Cultural institutions in India including the British Council, InKo Centre, Canadian Consulate, Institut Fran\u00e7ais, Japan Foundation and Pro-Helvetia Delhi.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"adv adv-loaded adv-bg\">\n<div class=\"story-block\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<div class=\"story-block\">\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">\u201cGoethe-Institut Chennai focuses on public art, bringing art to frequented and unexpected urban spaces, sharing ideas openly, initiating new conversations in the city for public impact.
