Travelling to Paris on 30 August provided the chance to catch the last day
of the Cartier-Bresson exhibition at the Maison Européenne de la Photographie.
(It is still under "current exhibitions", but it will no doubt be moved from
there soon: www.mep-fr.org)
Putting on Ferdinando Scianna ("La Géométrie et la Passion") at the same
time, did not do him much good: Even though there were some masterpieces in his
show, too (less than a handful), he clearly does not reach the level of
Cartier-Bresson. Cartier-Bresson's "géometrie" is more elegant and seems
completely effortless.
Coming out of the MEP (with queues even longer than when I went in - Cartier-Bresson still draws large crowds!), I strolled around Place des Vosges. Looking at the Galleries and shops, I was able to take another shot at my favourite theme of the moment: Reflections and "inside-out / outside-in". The bright sunshine projected the Place des Vosges into the Galleries and show cases, where it blended with the exhibited works.
