Limited Edition Platinum Prints of Iconic Images by Robert Capa
PRESS RELEASE Contact : Amy Wentz Ruder Finn Arts & Communications Counselors [email protected] / 212-715-1551 Limited Edition Platinum Prints of Iconic Images by Robert Capa, Henri Cartier-Bresson, George Rodger and David Seymour to be Published in Unique Hand-Bound Collector’s Book Magnum Founders, In Celebration of Sixty Years Provides Collectors Once-in-a-Lifetime Opportunity to Own Part of Photographic History Santa Barbara, California, June 6, 2007 – Verso Limited Editions, a publisher of handcrafted books that celebrate the work of significant photographers, announced the September 2007 publication of Magnum Founders, In Celebration of Sixty Years . Magnum Founders will include twelve bound and one free-standing rare platinum, estate-stamped prints of iconic images by four visionary photographers who influenced the course of modern photographic history – Robert Capa, Henri Cartier-Bresson, George Rodger and David “Chim” Seymour. The collector’s book celebrates the 60 th anniversary of Magnum Photos, a photographic co- operative founded by these four men and owned by its photographer-members. Capa, Cartier- Bresson, Rodger and Seymour created Magnum in 1947 to reflect their independent natures as both people and photographers – the idiosyncratic mix of reporter and artist that continues to define Magnum today. The first copy of Magnum Founders will be privately unveiled on Thursday, June 21 at the Museum of Modern Art, New York – birthplace of Magnum Photos – during the “Magnum Festival,” a month-long series of events celebrating the art of documentary photography. Magnum Founders will also be on view to the public at the Howard Greenberg Gallery, 41 East 52 nd St., New York, beginning on Friday, June 22. -
The Magnificent Eleven: the D-Day Photographs of Robert Capa
Men of the 16th Infantry Regiment seek shelter from German machine-gun fire in shallow water behind "Czech hedgehog" beach obstacles, Easy Red sector, Omaha Beach. © Robert Capa/Magnum Photos. The Magnificent Eleven: The D-Day Photographs of Robert Capa "The war correspondent has his stake — his life — in his own The Photographer: Bob Capa hands, and he can put it on this When soldiers of the 16th Regiment of the 1st horse or that horse, or he can put it back in his pocket at the Infantry Division landed at Omaha Beach on June 6, very last minute ... I am a 1944, photographer Robert Capa, in the employ of LIFE gambler. I decided to go in with Company E in the first wave." magazine, was among them. – Robert Capa Perhaps the best known of all World War II combat photographers, the Hungarian-born Capa The ten photos selected from the eleven surviving negatives had made a name for and published by LIFE on June himself well before 19, 1944 ... climbing into a landing craft with men of Company E in the early morning hours of D-Day. He risked his life on more than one occasion during the Spanish Civil War and had taken what is considered the most eerily fascinating of all war photographs. The famous image reportedly depicts the death of Spanish Loyalist militiaman Frederico Borrell Garcia as he is struck in the chest by a Nationalist bullet on a barren Iberian hillside. Capa was known to say, "If your pictures aren't good enough, you aren't close enough." On D-Day, he came close once again. -
On Photography, History, and Memory in Spain Hispanic Issues on Line Debates 3 (2011)
2 Remembering Capa, Spain and the Legacy of Gerda Taro, 1936–1937 Hanno Hardt Press photographs are the public memory of their times; their presence in the public sphere has contributed significantly to the pictures in our heads on which we rely for a better understanding of the world. Some photographs have a special appeal, or an extraordinary power, which makes them icons of a particular era. They stand for social or political events and evoke the spirit of a period in history. They also help define our attitudes towards people or nations and, therefore, are important sources of emotional and intellectual power. War photography, in particular, renders imagery of this kind and easily becomes a source of propaganda as well. The Spanish Civil War (1936–39) was the European testing ground for new weapons strategies by the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany. Both aided their respective sides in the struggle between a Popular Front government— supported mainly by left-wing parties, workers, and an educated middle class—and “Nationalist” forces supported by conservative interests, the military, clergy, and landowners. The conflict resulted in about 500,000 deaths, thousands of exiles, and in a dictatorship that lasted until Franco’s death in 1975. It was a time when large-scale antifascist movements such as the Republican army, the International Brigades, the Workers’ Party of Marxist Unification, and anarchist militias (the Iron Column) united in their struggle against the military rebellion led by Francisco Franco. Foreigners joined the International Brigade, organized in their respective units, e.g., the Lincoln Battalion (USA), the British Battalion (UK), the Dabrowski Battalion (Poland), the Mackenzie-Papineau Battalion (Canada), and the Naftali Botwin Company (Poland and Spain, including a Jewish unit). -

Press Release
J A C K S O N F I N E A R T ATLANTA Jackson Fine Art Media contact: FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE [email protected] BRUCE DAVIDSON In Color & The Brooklyn Gang Friday, May 15 — Saturday, August 1, 2015 Opening Reception Friday, May 15th, 6-8 pm Artist Talk Saturday, May 16th at 11 am My way of working is to enter an unknown world, explore it over a period of time, and learn from it. -Bruce Davidson Jackson Fine Art is pleased to start off the summer with two exhibitions by Bruce Davidson, one of the most celebrated and influential photographers of the 20th century. Since Henri Cartier- Bresson invited him to join the Magnum Photos agency in 1958, Davidson has established a reputation for his ability to engage his subjects, often concentrating on people on the outskirts or those explicitly concerned with redefining boundaries. On Friday, May 15th, from 6-8pm, Bruce joins us in opening a selection of work from 1959’s The Brooklyn Gang, as well as an exhibition of his highly anticipated color work, which spans over fifty years. On Saturday, May 16th, at 11am, Davidson gives an artist talk at the gallery; space is limited. In 1959, Bruce Davidson read about the teenage gangs of New York City. When a social worker facilitated his introduction to Brooklyn gang The Jokers, he began to document their daily lives. Davidson was just 25 when he began to photograph The Jokers, and could have easily been mistaken for one of them. This blurring of the distinction between photographer and subjects allowed for an intimate and dynamic series; we see the gang in times of post-war rebellion and iconic cool, but Davidson also captures the haunting restlessness and tragedy that marked many of their lives. -

It was out of love for the actress Ingrid Bergman that Robert Capa took Magnum’s very first photo of cinema, on the set of Alfred Hitchcock’s Notorious, inaugurating the relationship between the agency and the world of films. Using original, unseen stories and interviews, Cinema Through the Eye of Magnum depicts this relationship over 70 years. It is a confrontation of two seemingly opposite worlds: fiction and reality, and a unique look behind the scenes of cinema in the making. From the Golden Age of Hollywood to its eventual decline, Europe’s Nouvelle Vague to the birth of the blockbuster, the story of Magnum is the story of cinema itself. -
