Un album collectif où chaque photographe de l'agence Magnum livre sa vision personnelle du monde depuis la chute du mur de Berlin. Ensemble, les photographes mesurent le chaud et le froid des quatre coins de la planète, soulignant les paradoxes d'un monde à la fois déchiré par des conflits sanglants et animé d'une volonté de dialogue mondial. ©Electre 2024
magnum° offers us a global vision of our world in the new millennium. fifty years since the world famous photo agency magnum began its documentary mission. its photographers address today's radically-changed world. featuring 500 colour and black and white images selected and introduced by the photographers themselves. magnum° contains unique photographs shot especially for this collection. from henri cartier-bresson, james nachtwey, martin parr and susan meiselas, to magnum's newest recruits. each photographer wrestles with the turmoil of recent history. some tackle the dramatic changes in the world head-on in the traditional manner of the 'concerned photographer'. others choose subjects and aesthetic viewpoints which are entirely personal. the result is an award-winning album of stunning contemporary photography about the world today. magnum° is introduced by historian, broadcaster and cultural commentator michael ignatieff.
