„Eugene Atget. Paris“ - A flaneur and photographer at once, Eug?ne Atget (1857–1927) was obsessed with walking the streets. After trying his hand at painting and acting, the native of Libourne turned to photography and moved to Paris. He supplied studies for painters, architects, and stage designers, but became enraptured by what he called “documents” of the city and its environs. His scenes rarely included people, but rather the architecture, landscape, and artifacts that made up the societal and cultural stage. Take an intimate promenade through Paris with some 500 images from Eug?ne Atget, the fl?neur photographer who excelled in city “documents.” Down main streets and side streets, through courtyards, arcades, and the city’s 20 arrondissements, we find a unique portrait of a beloved city and the making of a photographic master, hailed by Man Ray, Berenice Abbott, Walker Evans, and beyond.
