जीए अस्तित्ववादी टर्टलनेकमध्ये.....G A Kulkarni In Turtleneck At The Existentialist Café Of 1940's

#GAKulkarni95   #जीएकुलकर्णी९५
Today July 10 2018 is 95th birth anniversary of  G A Kulkarni (जी. ए. कुलकर्णी).

Sarah Bakewell writes in her ‘At the Existentialist Café: Freedom, Being, and Apricot Cocktails’, 2016:

“...Existentialists wore cast-off shirts and raincoats; some of them sported what sounds like a proto-punk style. One youth went around with ‘a completely shredded and tattered shirt on his back’, according to a journalist’s report. They eventually adopted the most iconic existentialist garment of all: the black woollen turtleneck...”

This was 1940's...

The late G. A. Kulkarni  was born in 1923.

I found his following photo in Anand Antarkar's (आनंद अंतरकर ) book 'Ek Dharwadi Kahani' (एक धारवाडी कहाणी), 2015:

The title of the photo is: "GA in Youth"...so the picture must be from 1940's!
