从庆祝生还的【大香槟】到【玛格南中的玛格南】。
"Magnum is a community of thought, a shared human quality, a curiosity about what is going on in the world, a respect forwhat is going on and a desire to transcribe it visually." -Henri Cartier-Bresson
【玛格南】是思想的集结,是人类精华的一瞥,对纷繁的世界抱有极大的好奇心,向正在发生的视觉传奇致敬——布列松
玛格南摄影通讯社于1947年创立于法国巴黎,当时是为了忠实呈现第二次世界大战后的影像纪实而成立,至今在世界范围内依然具有广泛的影响力。
玛格南的创办者都是世界知名的新闻摄影师, 如罗伯特?卡帕、布列松、乔治?罗杰,大卫?西蒙。玛格南(Magnum)本来是一种大桶的香槟酒名,当时的战地记者常在生还之后喝这种酒与朋友庆祝,所以罗伯特?卡帕以此酒为摄影社命名。
玛格南摄影社集结了具有世界知名的摄影师,摄影主题广泛,如家庭、毒品、宗教、战争、贫穷、犯罪、政府和庆典等,都有相当经典而重要的纪实作品流传于世。Magnum Magnum是近年来最值得收藏的玛格南画册之一,这本庆祝玛格南摄影社成立60周年的精选集收录了20世纪最著名的摄影作品——从Henri Cartier-Bresson、Robert Capa、Eve Arnold、Marc Riboud、Werner Bischof,到新一代的Matin Parr、Susan Meiselas、Alec Soth以及Donovan Wylie,多张玛格南的精粹作品尽收其间。每位摄影师的6张作品都是其他玛格南摄影师投票选出的,可谓玛格南摄影的精华,也就是Magnum Magnum,玛格南中的玛格南。 媒体推荐
