Cartier-Bresson Foundation Opens with Photographer's Curated Selections
The Fondation Henri Cartier-Bresson, established by the photographer and housing his archive, inaugurates its exhibition space with a show curated by Cartier-Bresson himself, featuring works by Walker Evans, Lewis Hine, and Seydou Keita, among others. Concurrently, a retrospective of Cartier-Bresson's own work is presented at the Bibliothèque nationale de France from April 29 to July 27. These events prompt art press to honor the artist, renowned for his photography but also active as a painter and poet.
