Portraits of Contemporary "Tiatrists" (Konkani Stage Actors)
at Fontainhas Fest
| portrait atelier |
|
HI,
I have just completed my series on contemporary Tiatrists. The whole process took about three weeks and was shot in my studio in Goa, and Mumbai.They will be on display and sale at the Fontenias Festival from 26th November till 3rd December 2005.
I initially planned to display these pictures (of 34 various artistes who so graciously came forward to be photographed) at the upcoming IFFI.
I had approached the authorities in charge of the festival to give these artistes exclusive coverage in terms of gallery space at the INOX or the Kala Academy. I had decided to foot the whole bill for shooting the pictures plus framing them and printing an introductory brochure which gave a brief history for each artiste.
It soon became apparent that the people responsible for the organisation of the events at the IFFI didn't want to see me or listen to what I had to say. Maybe, I have to brush up on my reading skills as I did not fully comprehend the meaning of the abbreviation "IFFI". International Film festival held in Goa for "Foreigners" and out of state Film personalities, at the expense of Goan tax Payers (I pay my taxes to the CCCP).
Or maybe Tiatrists (whom I consider very good actors) don't
fall into the category of actors. Either way I would like to invite all of you to see the portraits of these wonderful people, and would appreciate your feed back.
My best wishes, and also please extend this invitation to your friends or any one who would like to see these portraits with a unique flavor of Goa.
Sincerely,
Alex A.A. Fernandes
