A collection of works by Martin Munkacsi, edited by F.C. Goudy, with a foreword by Richard Avedon. A rare and valuable photo book of 415 pages. Munkacsi combined journalistic accuracy with highly formal aesthetic standards. He was an outstanding representative and perhaps the most important photographer of the "Neues Sehen" (New Vision) in photographic history. His photograph "Black Boys on the Shore of Lake Tanganyika" greatly influenced Henri Cartier-Bresson and inspired him to start taking photographs. Few of Munkacsi's works remain. They are scattered around the world, and many have been lost. Only the Ullstein Archive in Germany holds an extensive collection of his work from his days in Hungary and Germany. This book brings together the first photographic groups of Munkacsi's entire artistic phase, as well as several photographs and works that will be seen for the first time since their first magazine publication. Munkacsi's work reveals a tense, technology-obsessed, glamorous, and contradictory era. - Title: MARTIN MUNKACSI - Editor: F.C.
