Nora Bibel – Family Comes First.

Beschrijving

22.5 x 30 cm. [104] pp. Hardcover. Illustrated in colour throughout. – In India, the joint family is a sacred institution deeply rooted in Hindu heritage. In a traditional indian joint family three or more generations live under one roof, sharing one kitchen, sometimes even one bank account. Though extended families exist in most parts of rural India and some cities, joint families are increasingly hard to find. New lifestyles and social codes pose a growing challenge to traditional values and established roles and rites. But what still remains is the idea of ‘Family Comes First’. The family portraits in the book were taken in the living rooms of their houses. Like in old family portraits the protagonists had to be very still through the long exposure time, making everybody seem rather stiff and serious. – Good copy
