Year 1972: Curfew was clamped in Varanasi. CARY WOLINSKY, a 25-year-old photojournalist Boston was confined to his room in a Varanasi hotel. He was here for stories for National Geographic and other photo magazines. Luckily, he met Naseeruddin Ansari of Bhadohi. Ansari told him about his business and invited him to Bhadohi and he was enamored with appealing sight of the town. What followed was visual odyssey through the vibrant culture of textiles across a dozen countries including India.
Wolinsky’s works will be showcased at the Pucker Gallery in Boston from June 9 to July 8. Many of them, I believe will cover photographs from our carpet industry. Just take dip at HARSH KABRA’s beautifully illustrate Voyages of Discovery
