CLASSICS OF DOCUMENTARY PHOTOGRAPHY: , , David Seymour - "Chim," Lewis W. Hine, and Dan Weiner

The work of these five photographers sets the tone and tradition of the concern for mankind. This humanistic tradition in photography was established by the pioneer documentary photographer, Lewis W. Hine (1874-1940). Hine's suc­ cinct summation of the purpose of the documentary photograph has been the underlying inspiration and ideal of all those who have devoted themselves to the use of the camera as a tool of social awareness and exploration of beauty: "There were two things I wanted to do. I wanted to show the things that need to be corrected. I wanted to show the things that need to be appreciated."

This exhibit also marks the publication of the first six titles in the ICP Library of Photographers (Grossman/Viking 1974), definitive monographs on Werner Bischof, Robert Capa, David Seymour - "Chim," Lewis W. Hine, Roman Vishniac, and Dan Weiner.

Approximately 100 black-and-white prints, from 11" X 14" to 20" X 30" in size, to be printed in New York under the supervision of Cornell Capa.

APROPOS USSR (1954 and 1973): Henri Cartier-Bresson

In an homage to Cartier-Bresson, Lincoln Kirstein said that "over the last 30 years the photography of Henri Cartier-Bresson has resulted in a body of work unique in the history of this craft, not alone in kind, but in quality . . . .His mind and eye are always on the point of focused historical discovery, the "X" that marks the spot where time and space cross in a potential explosion, which can illuminate some facet of our behavior in our time and our places . . . But his particular distinction is that he knows history is a continuum, that the points in time at which he feels his fingers can press, have been preceded by all the factors that make some crucial moment, of many moments, decisive."

From Cartier-Bresson's two trips to Russia - one in 1954 when,by virtue of the fact that he was permitted to use his camera with the kind of freedom not allow­ ed to any foreigner since the Russian Revolution of 1917, he presented us with the first peek behind the Iron Curtain; and his second journey to Russia in 1973 - emerges a photographic document of the land and the people that is unparalleled in the depth and sensitivity of reportage, and that carries the unmistakable mark of Bresson's decisive moments in visual history. The exhibit is created by ICP, and its showing at the Center will be its world premiere.

Approximately 100 black-and-white prints, in sizes ranging from 16" X 20" to 40" X 60", to be printed in Paris under Cartier-Bresson's personal supervision. International Center of Photography- Opening Exhibits continued Pg. 2
