Hungarian Photographers
-------------------------------------------------
A Few of the Most Famous Hungarian Photographers
Martin Munkacsi - had his fashion models running - revolutionary photography!
He composed his still valid theory about photo reporting while still in Hungary:
"to see in a thousandth of a second that which the ordinary person passes without notice this is the theory of photo reporting. And to photograph what we see during the next thousandth of a second that is the practical side of photo reporting."
Robert Capa - "One of the greatest photojournalists of the 20th century" and "The Greatest War Photographer in the World"
Andre Kertesz - Hungarian born photographer
Among photographers who were aided or influenced by him in Paris at this time were his fellow Hungarian Brassai and a young French student, Henri Cartier-Bresson, who was to become probably the best-known photographer of the century.
