About the artist :
American photographer, member of the Magnum agency since 1953, Elliott Erwitt portrayed his contemporaries with empathy and mischief. Gifted with a rare intelligence of situations, he knew how to touch universal feelings. His images are direct, immediately understandable, without apparent stylistic effects. His camera accompanies him at all times. His observation fields are the street, museums, the beach, or public gardens. In his little theater of the absurd, the domestic dog occupies a prominent place. "Making people laugh is one of the most perfect successes one can hope for," he repeats modestly. This dilettante image barely conceals a subtle gaze, a humanism punctuated by a solid sense of humor and derision.
