This show features a selection of his work made during 1990 &#8211; 2006, spanning the mid-zone of his career as an artist. The show includes abstracts from 1990s, landscapes from 2000s, portraits from 1990s and 2000s and fine-art nudes from late 2000s, most of them printed in the 19th century process of Platinum- Palladium and some in Silver halide. The range of work selected for this show precisely demonstrates the GRADATION of his style and subject matter during this period, showing the distinctive evolution of his art that has mostly settled now in the post-retirement focus of tasteful nudes and fine landscapes.The show begins with the display on the eastern wall of the gallery of his abstracts; the southern wall displays his landscapes; the central wall carries the portraits and the western wall features the nudes.The show opens in the PhotoMuse Gallery, Kodaly, Thrissur, Kerala, on 26th February and runs through March 20. Herbert talks on his work, and the art of Black and White photography in general, to a group of young photographers from Kerala and interacts with the public afterward. A touch of music and Indian tea follows.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Curated by Dr. Unni Krishnan Pulikkal<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<div class=\"gap\" style=\"line-height: 10px; height: 10px;\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"hr-thin\"><\/div>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;]<div id=\"ultimate-heading-30696a1d5eae4aaa8\" class=\"uvc-heading ultimate-heading-30696a1d5eae4aaa8 uvc-7829 \" data-hspacer=\"no_spacer\"  data-halign=\"left\" style=\"text-align:left\"><div class=\"uvc-heading-spacer no_spacer\" style=\"top\"><\/div><div class=\"uvc-main-heading ult-responsive\"  data-ultimate-target='.uvc-heading.ultimate-heading-30696a1d5eae4aaa8 h2'  data-responsive-json-new='{\"font-size\":\"desktop:12px;\",\"line-height\":\"\"}' ><h2 style=\"font-weight:normal;\">Venue<\/h2><\/div><div class=\"uvc-sub-heading ult-responsive\"  data-ultimate-target='.uvc-heading.ultimate-heading-30696a1d5eae4aaa8 .uvc-sub-heading '  data-responsive-json-new='{\"font-size\":\"desktop:19px;\",\"line-height\":\"\"}'  style=\"font-weight:normal;\">PhotoMuse Gallery, Kodaly, Thrissur<\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;]<div id=\"ultimate-heading-35146a1d5eae4aac2\" class=\"uvc-heading ultimate-heading-35146a1d5eae4aac2 uvc-9295 \" data-hspacer=\"no_spacer\"  data-halign=\"left\" style=\"text-align:left\"><div class=\"uvc-heading-spacer no_spacer\" style=\"top\"><\/div><div class=\"uvc-main-heading ult-responsive\"  data-ultimate-target='.uvc-heading.ultimate-heading-35146a1d5eae4aac2 h2'  data-responsive-json-new='{\"font-size\":\"desktop:12px;\",\"line-height\":\"\"}' ><h2 style=\"font-weight:normal;\">Date<\/h2><\/div><div class=\"uvc-sub-heading ult-responsive\"  data-ultimate-target='.uvc-heading.ultimate-heading-35146a1d5eae4aac2 .uvc-sub-heading '  data-responsive-json-new='{\"font-size\":\"desktop:19px;\",\"line-height\":\"\"}'  style=\"font-weight:normal;\">26th February &#8211; March 20<\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;]<div id=\"ultimate-heading-97086a1d5eae4aad3\" class=\"uvc-heading ultimate-heading-97086a1d5eae4aad3 uvc-7360 \" data-hspacer=\"no_spacer\"  data-halign=\"left\" style=\"text-align:left\"><div class=\"uvc-heading-spacer no_spacer\" style=\"top\"><\/div><div class=\"uvc-main-heading ult-responsive\"  data-ultimate-target='.uvc-heading.ultimate-heading-97086a1d5eae4aad3 h2'  data-responsive-json-new='{\"font-size\":\"desktop:12px;\",\"line-height\":\"\"}' ><h2 style=\"font-weight:normal;\">Entry<\/h2><\/div><div class=\"uvc-sub-heading ult-responsive\"  data-ultimate-target='.uvc-heading.ultimate-heading-97086a1d5eae4aad3 .uvc-sub-heading '  data-responsive-json-new='{\"font-size\":\"desktop:19px;\",\"line-height\":\"\"}'  style=\"font-weight:normal;\">Free<\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<div class=\"gap\" style=\"line-height: 10px; height: 10px;\"><\/div>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]<div id='wrap_map_6a1d5eae4aaea' class='ultimate-map-wrapper ' style='height:300px;'><div id='map_6a1d5eae4aaea' data-map_override='0' class='ultimate_google_map wpb_content_element page_margin_top' style='width:100%;height:300px;'><\/div><\/div><script type='text\/javascript'>\n\t\t\t(function($) {\n  \t\t\t'use strict';\n\t\t\tvar map_map_6a1d5eae4aaea = null;\n\t\t\tvar coordinate_map_6a1d5eae4aaea;\n\t\t\tvar isDraggable = $(document).width() > 641 ?
