Changing Landscapes English 2017

Mapping the changes from natural to cultural landscapes Sumant Moolgaokar was a visionary and innovator. Dr Erach Bharucha, a long-time friend of his, attempts to set the record straight with this celebration of two unknown facets of Moolgaokar's life his excellence in the field of photography and his environmental concerns. He writes of how Moolgaokar's experiments with managing land, water and living ecosystems were far ahead of his time. Tribal folk across the country are photographed with a rare sensitivity and with a desire to record their fast disappearing lifestyles and the landscape they lived in. Changing Landscapes is about the unappreciated wealth of our cultural heterogeneity.
