Steve McCurry : Voyage autour de l’Homme

Preview

Steve McCurry, twice a recipient of the World Press Photo Award, is today considered one of the great photographers of the century. 
The exhibition Voyage autour de l’Homme presents an original selection of more than 200 photographs covering 30 years of travels and encounters across the world, in search of what McCurry calls, “the unexpected, the moment of Serendipity.”

The exhibition layout is organized to arouse emotion, and the lighting makes the images seem almost alive. In addition to McCurry’s iconic photographs, half of the show is of his more recent work from 2009 onward, including the The Last Roll, a series taken with the final roll of Kodachrome film produced by Kodak.

A National Geographic documentary is being screened as part of the exhibition. The film tells the story of the Afghan girl with green eyes using never-before-seen pictures.
