The Official Indian Delegation to ProgresFestival 2026

We are proud to share that the Photography Club of India (PCI) is part of the Official Indian Delegation to ProgresFestival 2026, to be held in Genoa, Italy.

A feature article published by Progressive Street shines a light on the photographers and visual storytellers who will represent India and our Photography Club of India, at this international gathering of photography and culture. Together, this delegation reflects the incredible diversity, creativity, and evolving visual language of contemporary Indian photography.

From the streets of Kolkata to the villages of India, from intimate personal narratives to stories of culture, identity, memory, humanity, resilience, and everyday life—these photographers bring with them a rich tapestry of perspectives that transcend borders and connect people through the universal language of images.

This journey has been years in the making. What began as individual pursuits of storytelling has now become a collective representation of Indian photography on a global stage. We are honoured to stand alongside such an inspiring group of artists as their work travels from India to Italy, contributing to an international dialogue of creativity, culture, and visual expression.

The exhibition venue and official dates will be announced soon, and we look forward to sharing more details in the coming weeks.

Our sincere thanks to Progressive Street, ProgresFestival, and everyone who continues to support the growth of photography and visual storytelling across borders.

From Kolkata to Genoa. From India to the world.
One delegation. Many voices. One shared language—Photography.

We are incredibly saddened to share the news of the passing of legendary photographer Raghu Rai. For decades, Raghu Rai's lens captured the soul of India, documenting its complex history, vibrant culture, and the resilience of its people. His images are a testament to his profound vision, technical mastery, and unwavering dedication to photojournalism.

​Raghu Rai's impact on Indian photography is immeasurable. He not only documented significant events but also mentored generations of aspiring photographers, leaving an indelible mark on the art form. His legacy will continue to inspire and guide photographers around the world.

​Our deepest condolences go out to his family, friends, and colleagues. May his soul rest in peace.

Jadavpur University Photographic Club invites you to Montage 2026 from 24-26 April 2026 at Gallery Gold

Where frames find their walls, and moments turn into memories through light, silence, and perspective. Not just an exhibition-but a dialogue between the photographer and the observer.

Happy Bengali New Year to all

নতুন বছর ভোরে উঠুক ছবির আলোয়,
প্রতিটি সকাল জেগে উঠুক নতুন গল্পে,
লেন্সে ধরা পড়ুক জীবনের রঙিন মুহূর্তগুলো।

শুভ নববর্ষ ❤️

Regards
