Marc Riboud Biography

(French, 1923 - 2016)
Marc Riboud was given his first camera as a 13-year-old boy in 1936. 16 years later, after serving in the French Resistance, he traveled to Paris to meet Henri Cartier-Bresson and Robert Capa, the founders of Magnum Photos. His ability to capture fleeting moments in life through powerful compositions was already apparent, and this skill was to serve him well for decades to come.
 
Recommended Reading
A fraction of a second was all Marc Riboud needed to explain an often complex situation. Always camera by his side, the French photographer quickly earned the trust of people he met, using the lens to break down barriers between cultures and ideas. His sincere photographs opened doors wherever he visited; from elected politicians and distrusted dictators, to passers-by and movie celebrities. Exploring most corners of the world throughout his career, yet insisting he was not a globetrotter, Riboud - as his work - is an example of seeing the nuances in simplicity. The acrobat painter in Paris (1953) and Jaipur (1956) belong to some of the artist’s most famous photographs. Two works that have circled the earth, living a life of their own.
