Magnum: La Première Fois: The First Time

At the 2012 Rencontres photographiques d'Arles festival, its director Fran?ois H?bel requested Magnum photographers to recall the photograph that marked a turning point in their artistic careers--the moment in which their concept of photography and their sense of vocation acquired meaning and individuality for the first time.

Inspired by that occasion, this volume gathers works by Abbas, Christopher Anderson, Olivia Arthur, Bruno Barbey, Cornell Capa, Robert Capa, Chien-Chi Chang, Bruce Gilden, Harry Gruyaert, David Alan Harvey, Thomas Hoepker, Richard Kalvar, Peter Marlow, Susan Meiselas, Paolo Pellegrin, Gueorgui Pinkhassov, Eli Reed, Jacob Aue Sobol, Larry Towell and Alex Webb.
