Henri Cartier-Bresson: The Decisive Moment Hardcover - 2015
by Cartier Bresson (Photographer)
Summary
"Within the canon of European photography books it would be difficult to
find one more famous, revered and influential as Henri Cartier-Bresson's
"The Decisive Moment,"" wrote Jeffrey Ladd in "Time LightBox," in a feature
on Steidl's new edition of this ultimate photobook classic. Originally
published in 1952, this collection of Cartier-Bresson's best work from his
early years was embellished with a collage cover by Henri Matisse. The book
has since influenced generations of photographers, while its English title
defined the notion of the famous peak in which all elements in the
photographic frame accumulate to form the perfect image-not the moment of
the height of the action, necessarily, but the formal, visual peak. This
new publication-the first and only reprint since the original 1952 edition-
is a meticulous facsimile of the original book that launched the artist to
international fame, with an additional booklet on the history of "The
Decisive Moment" by Centre Pompidou curator Clément Chéroux. Henri Cartier-
Bresson (1908-2004) was born in Chantelou-en-Brie, France. He initially
studied painting and began photographing in the 1930s. Cartier-Bresson
cofounded Magnum in 1947. In the late 1960s he returned to his original
passion, drawing. In 2003 Cartier-Bresson established the Fondation Henri
Cartier-Bresson in Paris, one year before his death.
