The Pirelli Calendar heads to Asia: The 2027 edition explores India’s colours and contrasts

The 53rd edition of the Pirelli Calendar showcases India through the collaboration of three photographers, including Avani Rai, who honors her late father, Raghu Rai. This edition features a diverse cast of Indian artists and emphasizes the connection between past and present. Norwegian photographer Sølve Sundsbø focuses on individual interactions rather than broad representations of India. Pirelli's Executive Chairman defends the calendar's relevance against AI advancements, asserting that human experience in photography cannot be replicated by AI. The calendar continues to thrive due to its artistic quality and expression.
