Description
Known the world over for his iconic images of Che Guevara and Brasília, René Burri is one of the world’s greatest living photographers. Burri’s remarkable and adventurous work is brought together in this career- spanning collection of 55 photographs. A member of the prestigious Magnum photo agency, Burri is a photographer whose curiosity and humanity as a photographer have afforded him almost unrestricted access to the major events and personalities of the last fifty years. In this way the book is a fascinating personal account of the major artists, politicians and personalities that Burri has made a part of his life, as well as featuring lesser-known and early images which show how his style has developed.
