Over a period of three years, the German photographer Peter Bialobrzeski (*1961) made several journeys to India, where he visited religious sites and explored the mystique and the soul of the Indian subcontinent.

Far from pretending to comprehend the complexities of Eastern religions, he creates a unique field of tensions in his photographs. While his works reflect the curiosity of the spiritual seeker who gazes in wonder upon the sacred shrines of India, daring to profess open admiration for their beauty, they also reveal an analytical distance that transforms the holy sites of India into a stage.

XXX Holy-Journeys into the Spiritual Heart of India presents Bialobrzeski's photos as two-page color plates.
