Photography exhibition ‘Hyderabad in Bordeaux’ captures the architecture, people and vibrancy of a city
The Charminar, Golconda Fort and the HITEC City are among the most photographed landmarks of Hyderabad. The city is a microcosm of cultures where the old brushes shoulders with the new. Visitors to the Public Garden in Bordeaux, France, will get to see a representation of this cultural potpourri through a photography exhibition from August 11 to September 24. Titled ‘Hyderabad in Bordeaux’, the show curated by the Indian Photo Festival (IPF) is the new addition to the calendar of events that have taken place ever since the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed between Bordeaux Metropolis and Hyderabad in 2015, to strengthen the economic ties between the two cities. The cultural connection between Hyderabad and Bordeaux dates back to the 1860s when French traveller Louis Rousselet sketched and photographed cities in central India and Hyderabad; these are preserved at Goupil Museum, Bordeaux.More Related News
