Image to Come: How Cinema Inspires Photographers

Magnum Photos and the Cinémathèque française asked the ten Magnum photographers Abbas, Antoine D’Agata, Bruce Gilden, Harry Gruyaert, Gilles Peress, Gueorgui Pinkhassov, Mark Power, Alec Soth, Donovan Wylie, and Patrick Zachmann to create original works in response to the work of a film director who has influenced their own vision. In making this work the photographers utilise a mix of media: prints, projections, film stills, audiovisual material, multimedia, written notes, soundtracks, publications, etc., explaining the reciprocity between these two interwoven disciplines whereby each, in its own way, explores the domain of the visible.
