About this event
T.R.I.S. in Collaboration with the 17th Habitat Film Festival Cinema as a Critical Educational Resource is the 1st Research Category of Sixteen for T.R.I.S.'s India Studies framework. Its significance is amply visible in its online knowledge base tuliresearchcentre.org The Masterclass will include a walk-through of the archival exhibition on The Cinema of Shyam Benegal & Raj Kapoor with Mr Tuli. The Masterclass will not only highlight the history of Indian cinema but will also demonstrate how the T.R.I.S. online knowledge-base invites a deeper study of visual materials, embracing, equally, an enquiry into art arising from the genre of cinema – posters, song synopsis booklets, lobby cards, film and working stills, trophies etc from across the world, and their relationship to the fine and popular arts and photography.
