  • For Immediate Release
    Martin Munkacsi VITALITY 20 March – 16 May, 2009 Opening Reception Thursday, 19 March, 6-8pm Lucille Brokaw, Piping Rock Beach, L.I. 1933 Gelatin silver print; printed c.1933 Howard Greenberg Gallery, New York is pleased to announce an exhibition of rare vintage prints by one of the twentieth century’s preeminent masters of photography. The exhibition coincides with Munkacsi’s Lost Archive at New York’s International Center of Photography. In Europe until 1934 and in America thereafter, Hungarian born photographer Martin Munkacsi (1896-1963) single-handedly changed the look of photojournalism and fashion photography. Munkacsi defied convention by incorporating a sense of motion, dramatic camera angles, and elements of whimsy into his work. His vision is now well understood to have had an impact on an entire generation of photographers. This exhibition explores this influence through many of Munkasci’s iconic images including Lucile Brokaw, Piping Rock Beach, Long Island, 1933 (above). Born in Kolozsvar, Hungary, Munkacsi arrived in Budapest in 1912 and started out writing for newspapers. Later he taught himself photography as a way to sell his stories. In 1921 he began to photograph sports for the magazine Az Est, demonstrating a talent for timing and drama. In 1928 he left Budapest for Berlin and became chief photographer for Germany’s Ullstein Press working for Berliner Illustrirte Zeitung and other prominent photo weeklies. In the years prior to the war, Munkacsi traveled extensively, including trips to Algeria, Egypt, Liberia, Palestine, Turkey, and various European destinations. Munkacsi even once traveled in a zeppelin to North America. It is significant that both Henri Cartier-Bresson and Richard Avedon credit Munkacsi with being instrumental in the development of their styles.

Strengths of the Lee Library include American, British, and French photography and photographers. The publications on French 19th- century material (numbering well over 100), include many uncommon specialized catalogues from French regional museums and galleries, on the major photographers of the time, such as Eugène Atget, Daguerre, Gustave Le Gray, Charles Marville, Félix Nadar, Charles Nègre, and others.

The Lee Gallery Library has great depth in the Pictorialist Photography aesthetic movement, the Photo- Secession and the circle of Alfred Stieglitz, as evidenced by the numerous titles on American photography of the early 20th-century.

His unique style—inspiring photographers from Henri Cartier-Bresson to Richard Avedon—grew out of the context of 1930s photojournalism and required a combination of split-second timing and radical cropping. For Munkacsi, process was key. The recent rediscovery of his long-lost negative archive helps to clarify his working methods and uncover the secrets behind his most famous images. Drawn from the collection of over 4,000 glass negatives recently acquired by the International Center of Photography, this exhibition will include vintage and modern prints, as well as some original negatives, many still in their boxes with Munkacsi’s handwritten annotations. The exhibition will be on view at ICP (1133 Avenue of the Americas at 43rd Street) from January 16 to May 3, 2009. Martin Munkacsi began his career as a writer, publishing interviews and poems as well as sports coverage in several Budapest newspapers. In 1925, he started publishing his vibrant photographs of sporting events, while also operating a portrait studio. Moving to Berlin in 1928, he signed a contract with the publishing house Ullstein, and quickly became a regular contributor to Die Dame, Berliner Illustrirte Zeitung, and other prominent photo weeklies, shooting sports, travel, and lifestyle pictures.
