Henri Cartier-Bresson by

Book
)
22 editions published in 1976 in 3 languages and held by 918 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
Henri Cartier-Bresson reveals--as only a few great artists have done consistently--the variety and richness of human experience in the twentieth century. This second volume of Aperture's Masters of Photography series confirms the genius of the photographer who--with the new, smaller, hand-held cameras and faster films--defined the idea of "the decisive moment" in photography. Cartier-Bresson's imagery is intimate but utterly respectful of his subjects. In his travels throughout the world, he has captured glimpses of individual lives in scores of countries. Taken together, Cartier-Bresson's works constitute a personal history of epic scope. This volume presents forty-two of the artist's photographs, each recognized as a masterpiece of the medium. In addition, Cartier-Bresson offers a brief statement about what drives his work

The mind's eye : writings on photography and photographers by
Henri Cartier-Bresson(
Book
)
12 editions published between 1998 and 2009 in English and held by 668 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
"Among the most influential photographers of the twentieth century, a founder of Magnum Photos and the man responsible for the term "the decisive moment," Henri Cartier-Bresson is also a sharply insightful critic and observer." "The Mind's Eye is the first compilation of his writings on photography, some of which have appeared sporadically in books and journals over the past forty-five years but have never been available in a single volume. Several of the texts have never before appeared in English." "Now ninety years old, Cartier-Bresson seldom photographs; he devotes much of his time to drawing, and remains as forceful and discerning as ever in his writings. The last section of The Mind's Eye includes his commentary on photographer friends he has known - including Robert Capa, Andre Kertesz, Ernst Haas, and Sarah Moon - which reveal the impassioned and compassionate vision for which Cartier-Bresson is beloved."--Jacket

Man and machine : photographs by
Henri Cartier-Bresson(
Book
)
18 editions published between 1969 and 1972 in English and Undetermined and held by 563 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
With man, as with matter, chance and randomness may actually be the most representative forms of reality. The accident of human expression, the passing look of curiosity, of boredom, discovery, frustration, enthusiasm, faith, or happiness--such unique moments can be caught by that modern instrument, the camera, but only when mastered by an artist who has overcome its physical limitations and freed himself from its material constraints. This is Man and Machine: the mastery by man of his own electronic and mechanical creations. By his personal example of human control over a technical tool, and through his profound artistry, world-famous photographer Henri Cartier-Bresson reveals to us in this new book the interdependence of subject and object. His photographs are complemented by brief quotations from writers from Aristotle to Einstein.--Jacket flap

Henri Cartier-Bresson and the artless art by
Jean-Pierre Montier(
Book
)
7 editions published in 1996 in English and Italian and held by 383 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
Henri Cartier-Bresson is perhaps the greatest photographer of the twentieth century. In a career spanning more than sixty years, he has used his camera as an impassive and neutral third eye to capture the vagaries of human behavior and to produce some of the most memorable and compelling photographs ever published. In this impressive biographical study, Jean-Pierre Montier traces Cartier-Bresson's artistic progression from his early training as a painter and draftsman right up to the present; he provides a detailed analysis of Cartier-Bresson's most famous images and discusses the various philosophies that inform his work, notably Zen and surrealism. Drawing together a remarkable selection of the paintings, sketches, and photographs, this book is the first to attempt a serious evaluation not just of his photojournalism but of his oeuvre as a whole
