The exhibition is scheduled to last all the way through August 30th, writes Paris.fr. The European House of Photography is located at 5/7 Rue de Fourcy, Saint Paul or Pont Marie subway stations.
Henri Cartier-Bresson (1908-2004) is often refferd to as the father of photo reporting and photojournalism. What distinguishes his style of work is the fact that he never did more than one take and never altered a photograph, in other words he was making the final photo at the time of filming. Back to news
