Henri Cartier-Bresson "Early Prints"
Edwynn Houk Gallery
This event has ended.
An exhibition of over 50 photographs by the legendary Henri Cartier-Bresson is the first gallery show of Cartier-Bresson’s work to consist exclusively of vintage and early prints, which are exceedingly rare. The exhibition is drawn from a number of private collections, including the family of the artist. The works cover the sweep of Cartier-Bresson’s multi-decade international career, starting with the young artist’s travels in Mexico, Spain, Italy, and his native France in the 1930s, continuing through China and India in the late 1940s, and concluding with his rarely seen photographs of the United States in the 1950s-60s.
