Henri Cartier - Bresson

Sleeping couple in Romania

"I čitali smo nedjeljne novine ponedjeljkom, vadeći ih iz kanti za đubre, ali nekako smo nalazili pare za vino i kiriju. Novac je stizao sa ulica, iz zalogajnica, niotkuda i važna je bila samo nova boca. Pili smo i pevali, tukli se , ulazili i izlazili iz ćelija za pijanice, iz saobraćajnih udesa i bolnica. Dizali smo barikade između nas i policije i ostali stanari su nas mrzeli a nastojnik nas se plašio

...

I to je trajalo i trajalo i bilo je to možda najlepše vreme u mom životu"

-Bukowski

#poderdafotosBR #poderdafoto @magnumlearn “Henri Cartier-Bresson found the expression ‘the decisive moment’ much too limiting because he was also very interested in psychoanalysis and the subconscious. He talked a lot about what André Breton had taught him. He taught him to search through the rubble of the subconscious," Agnes Sire writes. ⁠ ⁠ She continues, "Those are some pretty important things to know. It’s not just any photographer who thinks like that, so this notion of the ‘decisive moment’ obscures all that. It’s very precise, very literal. It doesn’t take into account all the different temporalities of photography, of the subconscious, of the past, of the day before.”⁠ ⁠ In this article, the artistic director of the Fondation Henri Cartier-Bresson, Agnes Sire, gives a pit-stop tour through the defining characteristics of Cartier-Bresson's approach.⁠ ⁠ Head to the link in bio to explore the key characteristics of the Magnum co-founder's pioneering approach to photography.⁠ ⁠ The Var department.

HENRI CARTIER-BRESSON Viaje a México y Nueva York En 1934, con 26 años, viajó a México y vivió en DF varios meses. La mayoría de las personas con las que se relacionaba asiduamente estaban muy involucradas en la lucha revolucionaria. En ese año 1934, en México sintió el deseo de realizar películas por su cuenta. Allí conoció al fotógrafo mexicano Manuel Álvarez Bravo, junto al cual expuso en 1935. Tenía 27 años. Esa muestra se expuso en la Levy Gallery de Nueva York junto a las fotos de Walker Evans, padre de la fotografía documental norteamericana, sólo cinco años mayor que él. En ese año 1935, en EEUU, aprendió los rudimentos de la cámara de cine en una cooperativa de documentalistas muy influidos por las ideas, tanto políticas como estéticas, soviéticas y reunidos en torno al fotógrafo y cineasta norteamericano Paul Strand (padre de la fotografía directa) bajo la denominación de ‘Nykino’, (NY de Nueva York + kino, que significa cine en ruso) y realizó su primer cortometraje. #henricartierbresson #cartierbresson #henricartier #cartier #photo #photography #photoshoot #photoshop #photooftheday #photographer https://www.instagram.com/p/CYsJ6oHOQaF/?utm_medium=tumblr

for me, the camera is a sketch book, an instrument of intuition and spontaneity. #HenriCartier-Bresson . . . . #lensballshots #lensballphotography #crystalballlens #lenseball (at Union Springs, New York)

Following Cartier-Bressons style:

1. Be Wanderlust. (Travel/Explore) 2. Take spontaneous photographs (Candid) 3. Street photography. 4. Photojournalism. 5. Be patient and low key. 6. Be Empathic. (give meaning through your photos) 7. Don’t crop or edit your photos, 8. Composition (think like a painter) 9. Focus on the symmetry of the picture  10. Be immersed in the environment.

Henri Cartier-Bresson

He has a style that makes him a natural on any top ten photographer list. His style has undoubtedly influenced photography as much as anyone else’s. He was among the first to use 35mm film, and he usually shot in black and white. We are not graced by more of his work since he gave up the craft about 30 years before he passed away. It’s sad that there are fewer photographs by Cartier-Bresson to enjoy.
