Raymond Depardon

The Fondation Cartier pour lart contemporain presents an exhibition of worldrenowned French photojournalist Raymond Depardon at the Museum für Fotografie in Berlin. This special project brings together a series of seven short films that were first presented at the Fondation Cartier in the Fall of 2004. These five-minute films capture daily life in the streets of Rio de Janeiro, Tokyo, Berlin, Moscow, Shanghai, Addis Ababa and Cairo. In addition, Depardon will also present five new films on the cities of Buenos Aires, Paris, New York, Johannesburg and Dubai, realized specifically for the exhibition in Berlin. This catalogue will include a series of photographs Depardon realized during his stay in each of these twelve cities as well as an introductory text providing us with his personal point of view on his travels.
