Whilst in New York, I got a first viewing of an extremely comprehensive show of Henri Cartier-Bresson's work at Moma. It is a rare opportunity to see the breadth of his work, at a venue like this, and so was naturally excited. It is my personal belief that Henri Cartier, can sometimes get stereotyped, as the classic, French photographer, of his time; his work available on post cards and posters all over the world. Saying that, this exhibition is a real eye-opener. It allows you to understand how he started, and the impact he made during his career to LIFE magazine, covering stories and incidents all over the world, from wars to droughts. Before you enter the exhibition there are three extensive maps, showcasing the travels of his lifetime: He spent almost 53 years on the road, spanning almost every country possible at a time when travel was not like it is today. It is a great show - a must-see and a true celebration of one of the pioneers in photojournalism. Henri Cartier-Bresson at Moma, New York Till June 28th, 2010
