History of photography has been dominated by Europe and the United
States. The exhibition Where Three Dreams Cross - 150 Years of
Photography from India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh and the publication
accompanying put on view a photography rich and formally innovative, yet
embedded in the culture and politics of South
Asia.

HANNES SCHMID - Never Look
Back
12 June to 19 September
2010
Fotostiftung
Schweiz
The cowboy-hero riding across the apparently endless prairie and never
looking back is a modern icon decisively shaped by photographic images - as for
example in the legendary Marlboro advertising campaign. Hannes Schmid's
photographs, disseminated worldwide on ads and posters, have repeatedly inspired
the public's longing for freedom and adventure. What is the secret behind the
success of this figure? The exhibition in the Fotostiftung Schweiz throws light
both on "the making of" and on the continued survival of a hero who,
alongside
Mickey Mouse, Tarzan or Barbie, is one of the most influential figures that
never
existed.

On the weekend of the official opening a two-day international
symposium on South-Asian photography will take place (in English). The
accompanying symposium is meant to give an "inside view" of the
historical
background as well as the contemporary face of South-Asian photography. We have
invited a number of Indian, Pakistani and Bangladeshi experts - photographers,
theoreticians, curators, teachers and activists - to present and discuss their
own photographic works and thoughts as well as specific historical
aspects
