"Brassaï is a living eye," wrote Henry Miller of the Hungarian–born artist who adopted Paris after World War I and became one of its most celebrated photographers. Originally a painter before he moved on to writing, sculpture, cinema and, most famously, photography, Brassaï (1899-1984) was a member of Paris`s cultural elite, counting Miller, Picasso, Sartre, Camus, and Cocteau, among his friends. Camera in hand, he scoured the streets and bars of Paris, unabashedly capturing the city`s inhabitants...

Brassai, Brassai
Roaming Paris streets by night in the early 1930s, Brassa created arresting images of the city's dramatic nocturnal landscape.

Adopting a pseudonym derived from his original hometown of Brasso in Transylvania, Romania, Brassai’s extraordinary photography captures the populace of Paris’ night culture – the prostitutes, gays, lesbians and those who congregate in pubs and brothels. Eventually, Brassai began a 25 year association with Harper’s Bazaar that led right into the 60s after the editor-in-chief gave him complete freedom to choose his subjects. His alternative form of photography also inspired him to shoot graffiti that...

What characterizes a good photographer is that he has both that journalistic sense (he seizes whatever is interesting in the world) and, at the same time, the sense of form. For me, the criterion of a good photograph is that it be unforgettable."
