ankaj Sharma (1969), a shutterbug with indomitable hankering for the art of photography, has astounding achievements in this field. An alumnus of the Department of Ancient History & Culture, M.J.P. Rohilkhand University, Bareilly, he has been awarded Doctor of Philosophy for his research in 1994.
A born artist, Dr. Sharma’s penchant for photography had developed at a very young age. Soon it became his passion after he acquired Diploma in Photography from the same University. Thereafter, exhibitions, participation in the National/International competitions, awards/certificates of merits, honours, judging of national/international salons of photography, lectures on photography and publications of photographic works, all were in pipelines in next few years. He has to his credit five solo, two joint and ten group exhibitions organised in different cities of India. Mention may be made to his official exhibition on “Glimpses of Rohilkhand” covering 100 photographs of important monuments and memorials of Rohilkhand. This collection has become a prized possession of the Panchala Museum of MJP Rohilkhand University and has earned wide acclamation for him.
His works have been regularly published in many reputed news papers, magazines, journals and periodicals, such as Times of India, India Today, Amar Ujala, Times Journal of Photography and Smart Photography. Amongst them publication in “Tiranga” by Flag Foundation of India, New Delhi, “Rohilkhand ki Loksanskriti” by Department of Culture, U.P. State Govt., Lucknow, “4000 years of Bareilly” by MJP Rohilkhand University are important.
He is amongst a few in India, who has been honoured with Associateship of India International Photographic Council, New Delhi and Fellowship of Federation of Indian Photography, Kolkata (both in pictorial section).
Be it the human life, animals, birds, a tiny flower or colossal monument, his subjects are wide and varied. Many of his works have portrayed the life beyond the gizmos—the poor, downtrodden and destitute. The ingenuity of his photography can be envisaged from the expressions, moods, colours, timings and centrality of the subjects. These experiments and experiences have elevated him to the chairs of juries in several photo contests and exhibitions.
He is member of ‘India International Photography Council’, New Delhi (presently a member of the Executive Committee), ‘Federation of Indian Photography’, Kolkata and ‘Photo Vision’, Bareilly (India).
