** CURATOR SE CHARCHA WITH PA MADHAVAN




** At 12^o clock in the noon, every day at YAATHUM OORE, YAAVARUM KELIR 
Exhibition, Dr. Bhau Daji Lad Museum or at 6^o clock in the evening at Art 
entrance gallery in Kala Goda, you can find me sitting in the corner quietly 
reading a book on Mahatma Gandhi. You are most welcome to take a seat next to 
me. We exchange cards, introduce ourselves and let's start the Charcha. I 
must confess that I am not a person with an exceptional intellectual ability; I 
am just a little more than an enthusiast. I would like to talk about my kind of 
curation and photography with you and talk to you about the philosophy behind 
the curation and my understanding of photography with you; at the same time I 
would like to hear about your kind of photography and your understanding about 
the images in the exhibition. We may disagree, debate and confront each other.

You may neither be a photographer nor a person who keeps any knowledge of 
photography. You may hail from literature or religious or academic background 
or be a cultural activist; it is not a problem. Important is to have a dialogue 
on Photography. You can stay as long as you want to and bring over your friends 
and relatives.

We will walk around the gallery and talk about the images and if you like we 
can take a self-portrait and post it to the social network using # focusmumbai

** My Dear Friends,
On this founding day of Goa-CAP, 8th January, I wish you all a very Happy and 
Successful New Year! I also take this opportunity to thank you for your 
wonderful support and contribution to realize our dream.

2014 gave us a lot of surprises most of which have been challenging. We 
encountered them with courage and learnt all along the way to reach 2015.

We lost the physical space and started functioning in makeshift places around 
India. We thought that we could re-open in December but it could not happen. We 
are determined to make it into a functional place this year. We had a highly 
successful 'Wanted Series 
(http://goa-cap.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=d13487bc4ab5801e65b4c5ecb&id=02548fdd8d&e=815534e5c8)
 ' event which happened in multiple cities around India.

Towards end of the year, we got a huge surprise of Kodak donating its entire 
cine lab to Goa-CAP. Now we are proud custodians of one of the finest labs in 
the world which we have renamed as “The Celluloid Project 
(http://goa-cap.us4.list-manage2.com/track/click?u=d13487bc4ab5801e65b4c5ecb&id=947f4d0580&e=815534e5c8)
 ”.

This sets us the roadmap for this year, 2015.

2015, is the year of Photo festivals, 4 photo festivals are lined-up, and again 
millions and millions of images will be produced, exhibited and consumed every 
day, week and month.

We brainstormed on the current scenario and we have decided to dedicate this 
year to "Ethics in Photography". Towards this we have created a computer 
supported, conversations and learning tool, developed primarily for 
photographers, artists, educators, researchers and common public.  You can 
access this website atwww.ethicsmonitor.org 
(http://goa-cap.us4.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=d13487bc4ab5801e65b4c5ecb&id=421102c4c1&e=815534e5c8)

We welcome you all to be a part of this project and also request you to send in 
your suggestions and recommendations so we all can work towards making art of 
photography an enjoyable and purposeful experience.

“Now let us fight to fulfil that promise! Let us fight to free the world - to 
do away with national barriers - to do away with greed, with hate and 
intolerance. Let us fight for a world of reason, a world where science and 
progress will lead to everyone’s happiness. Soldiers! in the name of democracy, 
let us all unite!”  - Charlie Chaplin

With regards

** Dear Friends
On Behalf of the entire Goa-CAP global community, I would like to wish you A 
Very Happy New Year!

I am most happy to share with you exceptionally good news on the New Year. Goa 
Center for Alternative Photography 
(http://goa-cap.us4.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=d13487bc4ab5801e65b4c5ecb&id=0606c46180&e=815534e5c8)
 is now a proud custodian of one of the world’s best Cinelab – Kodak Cine labs.

The iconic Kodak Cine Labs in Mumbai, India which had once processed some of 
India’s finest films, shot on 16 & 35mm color film negative, in addition to 
portions of Hollywood films like The Dark Knight and Slum Dog Millionaire, was 
shut down on 1st November 2014 and all equipment was donated to Goa Center for 
Alternative Photography for converting it into a Cooperative Cinelab. We have 
named this initiative as “The Celluloid Project”

We have successfully dismantled the entire plant and shifted it to Goa. We are 
committed to revive and activate this lab very soon.

We thank Kodak for its generosity in donating us the equipment, which we have 
successfully moved from Mumbai to Goa.

We thank all our supporters and donors who believed in us and in ’Film’. 
Without them we wouldn’t have achieved this arduous task of acquiring and 
shifting the equipment within ten days. We hope you all will continue to share 
your support as we enter the next phase of restoring the lab facility. All the 
artists, film makers and film lovers….Let us raise a big toast to our first 
step towards making history,

‘Long Live Film!’

Pa. Madhavan
Executive Director

[Goanet] ON THIS ROAD, GANDHI WALKED ONCE

2014-06-11 Thread Pa . Madhavan
You are cordially invited to Appreciate and Criticize

(http://us4.campaign-archive1.com/?u=d13487bc4ab5801e65b4c5ecb&id=1f650c48e6&e=815534e5c8)

It is difficult to understand Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi's philosophy; the only 
way to appreciate it is by way of living up to his principles. As a 
self-proclaimed Gandhian, I have always wanted to re-live his experience to 
understand how he felt about complex issues; to know about how he devised 
strategies; his communication approaches and about his organizational 
ideologies. Most of the time ends in turmoil of thoughts and continuation of 
nomadic illusions. I have however continued and started taking pleasure in this 
commotion.

Three year back on 6^th of July 2011, in the quest to experiment my 
understanding on Gandhiji and also to experience what he went through during 
the historical walk, I along with my 3 other Colleagues at Goa-CAP, embarked 
upon an epic Salt march. The Salt March, mainly known as the Salt Satyagraha or 
Dandi March was undertaken on 12^th March 1930 and formed an integral part of 
the Indian independence movement.

Starting from the Sabarmati Ashram, we walked the same route, halted, slept and 
ate at the same villages where Gandhiji had stepped. Enroute, spoke to numerous 
villagers on varied topics, engaged with the youth and children and 
photographed the entire journey spanned across 381 km in over 24 days.

Over the past three years, I have been contemplating the idea of bringing out 
my views, what I saw, my understanding, and my confusion; did I succeed in 
comprehending Gandhi’s political thinking? and the result is a set of 24 black 
and white images edited in a non-linear, narrative style photo story titled “ON 
THIS ROAD, GANDHI WALKED ONCE 
(http://goa-cap.us4.list-manage2.com/track/click?u=d13487bc4ab5801e65b4c5ecb&id=507ffbe0ee&e=815534e5c8)
 , - a journey through the transformed landscapes which once accommodated and 
shaped the non-violent movement”. This photo story is a confluence of visuals 
and thoughts of the iconic National Highway 228 (NH 228) which connects 
Sabarmati Ashram at Ahmedabad to Dandi.

This Photo exhibition is a virtual display of images through the social media 
site Facebook. This experiment is to engage with the new social reality, 
addressed to emerging virtual societies.

This exhibition will go live on 11^thJune to 25^th June 2014 at CLICK
