    Re: Henri Cartier-Bresson Exhibit

    I went to the exhibit last spring when it opened at the MOMA in NYC. It is well worth seeing. I enjoyed most the portraits which were exhibited together and, of course, the iconic images. Not so much the the documentary work done later for the magazines. There were a LOT of photographs exhibited. This left me with the overall impression that he took a lot of pictures and some of them were really great.

    Go early on a weekday if possible.

    I've seen it a couple of times. It is my a opinion a fascinating, BIG, but flawed show. Michael Johnston wrote a piece that sums it up for me (scroll down about 1/2 way):
