Chennai Photo Biennale, 2/342 A, 1st Cross St, AGS Colony, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India

Chennai Photo Biennale presents the 4th Edition, in the bustling coastal metropolis, in Chennai, in the South of India with a population of over 10 million. Chennai Photo Biennale is a city-wide festival of photography spanning multiple venues across the city including heritage buildings, public parks, beaches, train stations, reclaimed spaces and art galleries.

The fourth edition of the Chennai Photo Biennale takes its primary inspiration from Dayanita Singh’s ongoing exploration “why photograph” which unfolds a whole series of inquiries into our relationship with photography. Emphasising, first on the making of the work, and then, on the form and the presentation of it, Dayanita urges everyone to keep going back to this critical
question of our time. In this era of visual saturation, CPB4 brings together slower approaches to image making and presents works in public spaces across the backdrop of the city of Chennai.
