About Henri Cartier-Bresson - The Modern Century

This book, published to accompany the major retrospective at The Museum of Modern Art in New York, is the first significant volume to draw fully on the extensive holdings of the Fondation Henri Cartier-Bresson in Paris. Many of the photographs are images made famous by The Decisive Moment and subsequent publications, but many others have rarely - if ever - been published before, and will be unfamiliar to even the most dedicated follower of Cartier-Bresson. Peter Galassi's essay explores the varied and often competing artistic, intellectual, social and professional frames of reference that shaped Cartier-Bresson, offering a fresh understanding of the panoramic scope of the photographer's work, from his Surrealist innovations of the early 1930s to his photojournalism and late work.
