Artist in Residence: Anantha Krishnan Artist Talk and Film Screening

Artist in Residency: A work in progress screening and talk. Cinematographer Anantha Krishnan, shares clips from “Shadows of Gandhi, How Democracies Die” and discusses his artistic process.

Over the years, what began as a work of fiction became a diary, and then, influenced by his conversations and travels as a photojournalist, an exploration of the problems that face his nation and both inform and threaten democracies around the world.

Part documentary, part diary, part guided journey, Anantha sees his process as one “of writing down memory, political thoughts, and bending the visual material to preserve a freedom of expression in India and wherever democracy is alive.”
