Burri, René, Impossible Reminiscences

René Burri’s photographs are recognized the world-over as amongst the greatest of the twentieth century. From his iconic shots of Che Guevara and Brasilia, his sensitive war reportage across the globe, to his insightful portraits of such artistic figures as Pablo Picasso and Le Corbusier, Burri’s visual world has shaped our perception of history and politics. In this book, first published in 2013, a year before his death, Burri invites us to view his selection from his archive of colour photographs, taken throughout his career, and tells the stories behind the photographs.
