A 13-day long photography exhibition by Pedro Meyer, one of the pioneers and most recognised representatives of the contemporary photography, titled 'Heresies' was inaugurated at the Drik Gallery in the city yesterday.

Renowned photographer and Managing Director of Drik Picture Library Ltd Dr Shahidul Alam inaugurated the show as chief guest.

This exhibition was curated from more than 300,000 images, both analogue and digital, nearly 2,500 documents regarding the professional career of Pedro Meyer. These were then uploaded and cross-referenced according to 20 different themes so researchers and photographers could use them for their curatorships to produce digital galleries.
