John Bulmer - Manchester (1976) |
Le vide-grenier du dimanche. Deux clichés du photo-reporter anglais John Bulmer (b.1938), pionnier de la photo couleur britannique déjà présenté ici en octobre 2015.
Dans un entretien de décembre 2020 au magazine britannique Art Dependence, à propos de sa proximité avec les personnages photographiés :
Perhaps it was the influence of Cartier-Bresson, but I'd always been attracted to pictures that included people in their environment. My work as a news photographer has probably encouraged me to go in closer and get to the heart of the matter.

Cartier-Bresson's pictures were full of humanity as well as capturing a decisive moment, Bill Brandt had a more built-in power, Larry Burrows raised the level of news photography to art.
