Descripción Condición: Gut. 207 Seiten; zahlr. Illustr. (Fotografie; s/w); 29,5 cm. Gutes Ex.; Umschlag berieben. - Englisch. - With 120 Plates. - Henri Cartier-Bresson (* 22. August 1908 in Chanteloup-en-Brie, Seine-et-Marne; 3. August 2004 in Montjustin, Alpes-de-Haute-Provence) war ein französischer Fotograf, Regisseur, Schauspieler, Zeichner, Maler und Mitbegründer der renommierten Fotoagentur Magnum. Er wurde vor allem durch seine künstlerische Schwarzweißfotografie bekannt. Im Zweiten Weltkrieg entkam er zweimal aus deutscher Kriegsgefangenschaft und fotografierte die Befreiung von Paris. . (wiki) // In a remarkable series of 120 photographs, Henri Cartier-Bresson, the world-famous French photographer, explores and defines the face of Asia with a visual power that seems, magically, to impinge upon all our senses. We see the omnipresence of poverty and wealth, so closely interwoven in the whole fabric of the East, in the ribs of a starving child, as thin as the spokes of the wheel alongside, and in a plump maharajah in his finery. We see the cruelty of Asian life, a product perhaps of the constant struggle for survival, in the terrible scenes before, during and after the partition of India. We see the face of Asia marked by new Western status symbols, and the unbelievable contrasts of Japan, where the onrush of American attitudes is balanced against the determination of the Japanese to remain themselves. We see old temples and new atomic plants, pomp and pageantry-pre- and post-colonial- shouting students and funeral wailing. With his extraordinary sensitivity and technical mastery, Cartier-Bresson-the only photographer ever to be afforded two one-man exhibitions at the Louvre-ranges widely, from China and Japan to Burma and Indonesia, from the Indian sub-continent to Turkey, Iraq, Iran, Uzbekistan and Mongolia. Robert Shaplen, Asian correspondent for The New Yorker, provides an equally acute written survey of Asia and her peoples, past, present and future. Widely acknowledged as one of the most brilliant reporters in South East Asia today, he is the author of The Lost Revolution (1965), required reading for every diplomat and policymaker involved in that turbulent region. Photographer and writer combined have produced a book at once moving and informative, an unforgettable revelation of the face of Asia.
