Paris: Photographs from a Time That Was (Art Institute of Chicago) ReviewA very well-selected sampling of a century's worth (1850s-1950s) of black and white photos of Paris. Everyone is represented here, from Atget to Stieglitz to Man Ray to Cartier-Bresson to Irving Penn to Robert Frank, and many others.
The photos include dramatic shots of familiar scenes and many photos of ordinary and un-ordinary Parisians going about their lives. Obviously, they run the gamut from the glass plate negative era to the Leica 35 mm and the styles vary widely. Some are very formal, posed affairs, some are "decisive moment" snapshots, and many are that ambiguous middle, seemingly candid shots but in reality staged and scripted by the photographer. The introductory essay is a little bit "artsy," but it's well worth reading. It discusses all the photographers, describes how they worked, and is very useful in understanding what you're seeing.If you have any interest in the Paris that was, you won't be disappointed.Paris: Photographs from a Time That Was (Art Institute of Chicago) Overview
