Le groupe RATP a donné carte blanche à Bruce Gilden, pour offrir un nouveau regard sur la mobilité urbaine dans 5 villes où il opère : New York, Paris, Johannesburg, Hong Kong, et Manchester.
Né à Brooklyn, Bruce Gilden, membre de Magnum Photos, bat le pavé depuis plus de 40 ans en photographiant les gens qui l’interpellent. La rue est son terrain de prédilection et son approche spontanée, pleine d’énergie est à l’unisson du rythme de la ville.Polka Galerie

My name is Andy Curtis and I am an avid street hunter. I love street photography and capturing moments in time that will never be replicated ever again! I first became interested in street photography about 3 years ago when I came across an article on some of the most influential street photographers. Then I did more research and believe it or not, ended up watching Spyros on the YouTube channel.
Kogan, who last gave an interview around the time Miller’s book came out, says he likes challenges and that “Magnum is too important to fail”. An avid collector of photographs, he loves them so much that when he was asked a year ago if he would advise on a new CEO, he volunteered himself. “It’s an incredible organisation that does incredible work, not just yesterday but today and into the future and the year I’ve spent there has persuaded me even more strongly that not only is it worth saving and prospering, it will be saved and it is prospering. So I’m very, very excited to be there.”
When Saugerties-based photographer Michael Nelson visited Cuba for two weeks this past March, his first impression of the island was of its sheer size. “Cuba was always ‘the forbidden place’ that Americans were not allowed to visit for 50 years, so we kind of erased the island from our imaginations because we could never go there,” he says. “And then when you get there, you realize, ‘This is a big, big island!’ It’s 800 miles wide; the distance from New York City to Indianapolis. And if Havana were a city in the U.S., it would be the fourth largest city in the country. It’s the size of Chicago. You look around and you feel like, ‘Where have I been? This place has been going on.’”
Some of the most powerful photographs are those that crack open our lives, cleaving our existence right down the middle and into a “before” and an “after.” Magnum co-founder Henri Cartier-Bresson might have called the instant in which such an image is conceived a “decisive moment,” so it’s appropriate that more than sixty years later, Magnum is revisiting this theme by asking its photographers to select a single photo that “Changed Everything.” Scouring their archives, these artists paired their image with its backstory, illuminating the transformative currents that linger beneath each frame. We’ve chosen our favorite 14 stories to share on Feature Shoot.
This past weekend I visited the city of London in the UK, to film a Street Hunt video and to attend the 1st Annual Street Hunters Meeting. I stayed for 3 nights and had an amazing time! London is a versatile city, full of many amazing characters. At first I was overwhelmed by its size and I felt like an ant in the sea, but soon I adjusted and with the help of the rest of the Street Hunters I managed to get in sync with the vibe of London! All in all I shot in the streets for 2 full days (Saturday and Sunday) and during that time I covered 30 km of walking distance that I managed to cover in a total of 18 hours. I didn’t break my Hamburg 22 hour record in 2 days, but still I felt like I burned off 1 week’s worth of calories!
Genius or crackpot? Your opinion of Gertrude Stein, in case you hadn’t already formed a firm one, may zigzag between those poles, ultimately landing somewhere in between, as you listen to David Greenspan‘s fascinating new exploration of this singular writer’s work. “Composition ... Master-Pieces ... Identity,” presented by Target Margin Theater at the Connelly Theater, consists of three pieces of Stein’s writings — two lectures and a poem — read or performed by Mr. Greenspan, who also conceived the show.
In these photographs, I’m attempting to show an overlooked reality and richness of contemporary African-American life,” Wagner writes in his artist statement. “My vision, is to show this as organic, transparent, and universal as possible.”

Only The Essentials In the course of the self-assignment, Kennerly realized that the iPhone fit his preference for carrying only the essential photo tools. “You automatically become a better photographer when you’re not fooling around with a lot of stuff. I have a streamlined way of working, and on the job I carry only what I’ll need. I don’t look like a Christmas tree draped with Canon ornaments. I know that simplicity is the hallmark of a photographic career.”
LISA-JO OLIVER – USING THE GENRE OF DOCUMENTARY, THIS BODY OF WORK IS ABOUT CREATING A VARIETY OF IMAGES WHICH REPRESENT IDENTIFICATION WITHIN TODAY’S SOCIETY BY JUST FOCUSING ON A FRACTION OF A PERSON’S BODY, RATHER THAN THE WHOLE. THIS IS EXPLORED THROUGH PORTRAITS OF DIFFERENT PEOPLE’S HANDS. THE PEOPLE IN THE IMAGES ARE ANONYMOUS, AND UNRECOGNIZABLE AS ONLY THEIR HANDS ARE AVAILABLE TO REVEAL INFORMATION TO THE VIEWER.

If you think about Berlin in the 1920s today, there are a lot of clichés and stereotypes that come to your mind: the „dance on the volcano“, women with short hair, feather boas and cigarette holders, and men wearing suspenders and flat caps.
But the „Roaring Twenties“ were a much more complex time period. In fact, it was just a small circle that was partying in the hedonistic way we like to remember. The ordinary life was much different to that. In November of 2011 there was a great exhibition about Friedrich Seidenstücker running at Berlinische Galerie that shows exactly that: the everyday life in Berlin in the 1920s und 1930ies. Have a look for yourself after the jump.
