Book Review // Magnum Analog Recovery

May 7, 2018 Simon Johnson

On the occasion of the exhibition, LE BAL publishes the book Magnum Analog Recovery. From Robert Capa's D-Day (1944) to Gilles Peress's Telex Iran (1979), to anonymous or never-seen series, this book proposes a singular, non-academic and unofficial crossing of the history of the first 30 years of Magnum deployed on 231 vintage prints. Reproduced in a large plain cardboard binder evoking the archive boxes from which they came, iconic images of the twentieth century rub shoulders with many unpublished photographs of Henri Cartier-Bresson, Eve Arnold, Rene Burri, Elliott Erwitt, Alex Webb or Gilles Peress.
This true book-object, far from the traditional exhibition catalog, presents an intertwining of images and unique series in black and white, which materialize by a tangle of folded posters, leaflets or notebooks. Like the research in the fund that uncovered the nuggets Magnum, a game between what is given to see and what can be revealed is offered to the reader with folding posters. Magnum's texts and quotes from photographers (notes, letters, excerpts of correspondence or interviews ...) punctuate the sequence and evoke a multitude of sometimes contradictory approaches within the photographers of the agency. A rise in time and the golden age of the legendary agency that defined documentary photography. Only available at BAL and LE BAL BOOKS.COM in limited edition for the duration of the exhibition.
