Expos
Steve McCurry at the Maillol Museum
“
Traveling and photographing, seeing the world we live in: I can't think of a better way to live the life that is given to us. "
The humanistic motto of Steve McCurry, 71, suits the 150 photographs that summarize the commitment and pictorial talent of this traveler image. Life as a motive. He has not stopped traveling the world, often suffering, always working, ceaselessly covering this vital flow which repairs everything. No pathos in his photos, sometimes drama, which compensates for the idea that man can be better than the expected story (
Colombes in front of the Blue Mosque,
the tomb of Hazrat Ali, in Mazar-e Charif).
From a steam locomotive in Uttar Pradesh in 1983 to the burning oil fields of Kuwait in 1991. From his multiple reports in Afghanistan, where burqas become games of color, to the now iconic portrait of the little Afghan girl with green eyes , Sharbat Gula, taken in a refugee camp in Pakistan.
