Cartier-Bresson and Avedon on Munkácsi
Boys running into the surf at Lake Tanganyika, ca. 1930 -by Martin Munkácsi
via MIA
This may be a “perfect” photo (never forget it was taken in 1929-1930), and this is what Henri Cartier-Bresson (who became a friend of Munkácsi) and Richard Avedon thought of the photographer:
I saw a photograph of three black children running into the sea, and I must say that it is that very photograph which was for me the spark that set fire to the fireworks. It is only that one photograph which influenced me. There is in that image such intensity, spontaneity, such a joy of life, such a prodigy, that I am still dazzled by it even today.
Henri Cartier-Bresson, May, 1977 (cited in MOG)He was the first. He did it first, and today the world of what is called fashion is peopled with Munkacsi’s babies, his heirs. It was my first lesson in photography, and there were many lessons after, all learned from Munkacsi, though I never met him. He brought a taste for happiness and honesty and a love of women to what was, before him, a joyless, lying art.
Richard Avedon, August, 1963 (cited in MOG)
