About the exhibition
Founded in 1947 by photography giants Henri Cartier-Bresson, Robert Capa, George Rodger and David Seymour, Magnum began as a meeting of creative minds, championing a blend of art and reportage that has become the collective’s signature. Witness to Nature continues this legacy, featuring four pairs of Magnum photographers whose work is presented in conversation across four topics: ‘Nature and Metropolis’, ‘Costumes and Cultures’, ‘Community and Seclusion’ and ‘Eternal and Ephemeral’. The exhibition is a celebration of humankind: the state of the world, our place in it, howe we came to be here and the challenges we face.
