Indepth Arts News: "Marc Riboud: The World, His Lens" 2006-03-01 until 2006-04-30 Duncan Miller Gallery Los Angeles, CA, USA United States of America
Known for his strong and graphic compositions, a sense of compassion for the human spirit is also present in Marc Riboud images. His work can be found in major private and museum collections throughout the world, including the Musée d'Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris, The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and the Museum of Contemporary Art in New York.
At age 13, Riboud (1923- ) received his first camera as a gift from his father—a Vest Pocket Kodak. He’s been taking pictures ever since. Born in Lyon, France, he moved to Paris to pursue his interest in photography. Invited to join Magnum as an associate at the same time as Henri Cartier-Bresson and Robert Capa, Riboud went on to travel the world with his camera. He is renowned for his documentation of the East, particularly China and Vietnam. Riboud’s images have appeared in Life, National Geographic, Paris-Match, and Der Stern.
