Description
A new edition of Singh's acclaimed first foray into documenting the secret lives of archives
This is the long-awaited new edition of Dayanita Singh's (born 1961) File Room, her first book on archives, published by Steidl in 2013. Singh's images of archives and their custodians across India examine how memory is made and how history is narrated. Her photographs bring to light the paradoxes of archives: while impersonal in their classifications, each is the careful handwork of an individual archivist, an unsung keeper of history whose decisions generate the sources of much of our knowledge. Archives are vessels of orthodox facts but also the home of neglected details and forgotten documents that can unsettle the status quo. As the pace of contemporary India accelerates, what will become of the archive? Singh prompts us to imagine archives not merely as documents of dusty scholarship but as monuments of knowledge, beautiful in their unkempt order.
