While in the tradition of Henri Cartier-Bresson, the image was more about the photographer’s control of the frame, in Guy Tillim’s photographs of African cities it seems as if the subjects have been given a freer rein. Tillim has never believed that one frame can capture the essence of a situation. For him, all moments could be decisive. In these photographs, exhibited in “Museum of the Revolution,” at the Fondation Henri Cartier-Bresson, time neither seems to be racing forward, as in a film, nor does it feel suspended as in a single photograph. Tillim’s photo-sequences are closer to reproducing memory with its rifts, loops, gaps, hiccups and jolts. The images carry a sense of dynamism, yet uncertainty, an ambiguous feeling that maybe reflects a larger question about a continent’s future.

A discussion about the photography of Italian-born, New York-based photographer and director Mario Sorrenti is, in many ways, opening a book on popular culture and landing on the chapter about modern-day fashion photography. Born in the coastal town of Naples in Italy to father Francesca Sorrenti (fashion photographer and creative director), Mario, at the tender age of 10, moved to New York City; the city would come to embrace Mario, as he would come to call it home.  NYC has embraced Sorrenti; who was showcased in MoMa's 2004 exhibition “Fashioning Fiction in Photography since 1990” Exhibiting globally (New York City,

Almost all of my favorite photographers are dead. Almost all of my favorite photographers photographed with equipment that is essentially inferior to today's mobile cameras. Almost all of my favorite photographers photographed on film with a resolution that is only a fraction of what our modern digital cameras are capable of capturing. In other words, I am not obsessed with the idea of getting the newest equipment in hope that it will deliver my best not yet shot image. I miss nothing to photograph, my belief is that the image is created behind the camera, not in the camera. 'Sharpness is a bourgeois concept' is a favorite quote by Henri Cartier-Bresson (1908-2004), as I see it one of the greatest photographers, in my world only overshadowed by André Kertész (1894-1985). My photographic preferences were created in 1975 when I met a professional photographer in a small country town in Sweden. He showed me into a world of photography that until then had been unknown to me, and in that world I have remained. In this world there were no technically perfect images here, but instead there was the elusive feeling and the absolute right moment when the exposure was made. These pictures grabbed

Recording the life and moments of people society had forgotten… or chosen to ignore, Diane Arbus is heralded as one of the most important documentary photographers of the 20th century. Diane Arbus photographed intimate moments of the shunned, the odd, the isolated, and the eccentric creating a catalogue of iconic images sometimes viewed as dark, confrontational and exploitative. Were Arbus’ subjects the heroes of her images? Did her lens give her subjects a voice or place them behind a viewing glass, creating a series of cultural curiosities? Some have viewed her work as an important record; giving voice and visibility
