Join us for the exclusive Director’s Preview of our newest exhibition, Magnum Manifesto, a contemporary look at the legendary cooperative Magnum Photos on its 70th anniversary.

Tracing the ideas and ideals behind the founding and development of Magnum Photos, curator Clément Chéroux explores the history of the second half of the 20th century through the lens of 75 masters, providing a new and insightful perspective on the contribution of these photographers to our collective visual memory.
