Henri Cartier Bresson - "The Impassioned Eye"


I recently watched a great documentary on H. Bresson- I'd recommend it if you find you have some spare time as winter break approaches! You can find the IMBD summary of it here, and an NY Times review here.


"In this small but stately film, completed a year before Cartier-Bresson's death at 95 in August 2004, he slowly leafs through volumes of his black-and-white photographs, shows some of his later drawings and muses on his art...In all his photographs, Cartier-Bresson says, 'geometry is the foundation.'"
