This volume presents a collection of Martine Francke's photographs - her own favourites - grouped within themes of childhood, the theatre, the Orient, old age, portraits, museums and landscapes. In creating her pictures, which range from portraits of Michel Foucault and Marc Chagall, Franck sees the camera as "a frontier...that one is constantly breaking down so as to get closer to the subject". The foreword includes a faxed conversation between Franck and John Berger, the author and art critic.

Little substance
21 July 2004
By A photographer
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
Unlike her husband, Henri Cartier-Bresson and many other members of the Magnum photo agency noted for their photography books, this book shows nothing out of the ordinary. The cover photo is the best. The rest are on the same level as the mundane pictures running all over the world in daily newspapers. Two stars because of the cover picture only.
