A comprehensive overview of this remarkable photographic talent
These poetic and tender images will delight art lovers everywhere
A member of Magnum Photos since 1986, Steve McCurry has been recognized with a wide array of top awards. This collection features many iconic photographs from his travels throughout the world. A sensitive observer, he captures those unique instants that transcend the everyday. With a mix of landscapes, portraits, and street scenes, he documents his surroundings with tenderness and vitality.
His evocative—and sometimes dreamlike— color photography highlights the joys and despair of the human condition. Keenly composed, these images have exquisite texture and form. His work offers philosophical insights that take us far away from our own realities and preconceptions.
_____________
Steve McCurry is an American photojournalist best known for his photograph, 'Afghan Girl' that originally appeared in 'National Geographic' magazine. McCurry focuses on the human consequences of war, not only showing what war impresses on the landscape, but rather, on the human face. He is driven by an innate curiosity and sense of wonder about the world and everyone in it, and has an uncanny ability to cross boundaries of language and culture to capture stories of human experience. Most of my images are grounded in people. I look for the unguarded moment, the essential soul peeking out, experience etched on a person's face. I try to convey what it is like to be that person, a person caught in a broader landscape, that you could call the human condition.
