| Atget Paris, published by Hazan. I bought this book in Paris many years ago. |
The Museum of Modern Art’s new exhibition is dedicated to Eugène Atget. Don ´t miss it if you are in NYC those days. The exhibition gives an opportunity to
rediscover the artist´s photographs of vieux Paris and a chance to fully appreciate his
influence on the Surrealists.
“We’re presenting a cross-section of Atget’s body of work, a distilled version that reunites his most famous photographs and exhibits them in a specific context,” says the show’s curator, Sarah Meister.
“He was an urbanist historian, a Balzac of the camera, from whose work we can weave a large tapestry of French civilization,” Berenice Abbott.
