For its first participation at ArtGenève, Magnum presents a panorama of photographic creation through a selection of iconic images covering seven decades.

A selection of vintage prints traces the history of the agency. Very rare prints by Abbas, Eve Arnold, Bruce Davidson, Marc Riboud and Raymond Depardon, cover several key events from the past 70 years.

The work of two great Swiss photographers, René Burri and Werner Bischof, will be highlighted, and exceptional prints by Harry Gruyaert demonstrates his great command of color.

The newer generation will be represented by Paolo Pellegrin, Mikhael Subotzky, Matt Black, Alex Majoli and Cristina de Middel, already in the collections of major museums and have featured in photo festivals worldwide.
