Magnum Photo Gallery | Paris (and London)
Magnum Photo Gallery Paris
It’s fun to wake up everyday and find out something new. I’m surprised this just came on my radar, not sure how I never knew about the Magnum Photo Gallery in Paris.
Next visit to Paris it will be right at the top of my todo list. You may get there before I do, so please share any commentary with me…
Here’s a little more info about the gallery as well as the current exhibition!
This summer, Magnum Photos presents iconic color photographs from the 20th century in the latest exhibition at its Paris gallery, located in the 11th arrondissement. It is the gallery’s first group exhibition to date, drawing upon the work of eight photographers in total: Werner Bischof, Ernst Haas, Alex Webb, Harry Gruyaert, Constantine Manos, Miguel Rio Branco, Bruno Barbey, and Gueorgui Pinkhassov.
Assembling eight different pioneering perspectives from the Magnum archive through over 40 works, the exhibition also pays homage to the traditional color printing processes of the era, featuring a large number of rare vintage dye transfer and cibachrome prints.
The Magnum Gallery represents all generations of Magnum photographers and estates, honoring the legacy of its 75-year-old archive whilst nurturing the careers of the co-operative’s younger generation of photographers. Operating in both Paris and London, The Magnum Gallery has a robust online and offline exhibition program and works with institutions, seasoned collectors, as well as amateurs in the art world, aiming at a wide public engagement for art. The Magnum Gallery is also present at leading art and photography fairs around the world.
