Lindsay Hebberd's Cultural Portraits of India photographic exhibition will again become available upon the completion of her current production, Las Vegas - Imagination to Reality. CPI exhibition venues in the USA, Canada and the United Kingdom will be listed at the bottom of this page as they are CONFIRMED.

Exhibition Background... Cultural Portraits of India is Lindsay Hebberd's personal tribute to a people whose spirit, friendly nature, and generous hospitality are as unforgettable as their cultural achievements. The Indians' irrepressible enthusiasm for life is expressed in a myriad of forms, a profusion of details, and a vibrancy of spirit that knows few parallels.

Unfortunately, knowledge of India is often restricted to news coverage of problems and poverty and celluloid images of stereotypes that depict India as a land of oriental exoticism. Hebberd's photographs illustrate the less well-known side of India: the natural beauty and cultural heritage that permeates the lives of the people but does not make the headlines.

India is more than a country. It is a subcontinent. Within it exist myriad languages, peoples, religions, and geography. A young nation, India is an ancient land. Cultural Portraits of India celebrates the beauty and heritage of India in a spirit of respect, appreciation, and affection for a diverse people and their traditions, talents, and beliefs.

The Cultural Portraits of India exhibition contains seventy large museum-quality photographic prints, including nine 1.5-meter-long panoramas. Experiencing this exhibition is like touring the Subcontinent without leaving the premises--it is an inspirational, educational, and transportive experience!
