October 21st Show

Tune in for an interview with Gauri Gill,  a photographer who has a new exhibit being showcased at the Chicago Cultural Center from now until December 28th. The exhibit is called “The Americans” and features p

hotographs taken by Gauri  across the United States from 2000 to 2007, Gauri Gill’s exhibition documents the Indian population as it has settled across the country – in rural areas, small towns, and big cities – both retaining its traditional signifiers of Indian identity and merging within a larger American plurality. The resulting color photographs are simultaneously humorous, poignant, ironic, and beguiling. Gill’s portrayal of  her subjects and their lives emerges through her strict attention to detail and sympathetic juxtapositions
