Photography Exhibition: San Francisco Museum of Modern Art - Henri Cartier-Bresson The Modern Century

The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art often has interesting and sometimes quirky photographic exhibitions in the world. This exhibition, Henri Cartier-Bresson The Modern Century, displays some of the best works of one of the 20th century's greatest photojournalists.

This exhibition will run through January 30, 2011.

An innovative artist, trailblazing photojournalist, and quintessential world traveler, Henri Cartier-Bresson ranks among the most accomplished and original figures in the history of photography. His inventive images of the early 1930s helped define the creative potential of the medium, and his uncanny ability to capture life on the run made his work synonymous with "the decisive moment." This major retrospective offers a fresh look at Cartier-Bresson's entire career, revealing him as one of the great portraitists of the 20th century and one of its keenest observers of the global theater of human affairs.

If you’re in the San Francisco, California area before this exhibition leaves, don’t miss it.

As I travel, I love seeing the work of other photographers as I hope you do. If you know of a new photographic exhibition which you think the Blog should publicize, please contact me.
