A member of the famous artist-owned photo agency Magnum Photos, Swiss photographer René Burri (1933?2014) found himself wherever history was happening during the late twentieth century. His countless travels took him across Europe and the Americas to the Middle East to Japan and China to document the twentieth century?s major events. His extraordinary sense for people and their personalities resulted in remarkably candid portraits of celebrities, such as architects Le Corbusier, Oscar Niemeyer, and Luis Barragán; artists Alberto Giacometti, Pablo Picasso, and Jean Tinguely; and Che Guevara, whose 1963 portrait with a cigar is one of the world?s most famous and widely reproduced photographic portraits.00Exhibition: Musée de l?Elysée, Lausanne, Switzerland (26.01.-03.05.2020).
