The Jehangir Nicholson Art Foundation and the CSMVS are delighted to present Kanu’s Gandhi in collaboration with Nazar Foundation opening on the 12th of January 2017. The show gives people rare glimpses of Gandhi in unguarded moments, both in the personal and public space. Taken by his nephew Kanu who had rare access to Gandhi, these pictures were uncovered recently and give us a wonderful opportunity to study the Mahatma in solitude, at public events or during intimate moments he shared with his wife Kasturba.

The exhibition is the first of a two-part series on photography that the JNAF will present in 2017. This theme expands on the tremendous passion that the collector Jehangir Nicholson had for this medium and the archive of his work that is in the Foundation’s care.
