Beginning in 1957, René Burri reveals a nation caught between reconstruction and division. His images move from the ruins of war to the rise of modernist architecture, tracing the contrasts of a society rebuilding itself while still marked by fracture. His photographs invite viewers into a metropolis at the front lines of history, where barriers rise and fall and the search for identity unfolds. Here, the John F. Kennedy Bridge is bathed in the warm haze of sunset, with streams of traffic flowing across, a scene where the rhythms of daily life meet the larger currents of change.

THE PROJECT:

Magnum Photos, in partnership with Fujifilm and MPP (Heritage and Photography Library of Paris), presents A World in Color, a historic project to digitize the agency’s Paris color library archive, which has remained dormant for decades.

Stowed away in the late 19th century Saint-Cyr fort are over 43,000 slide sheets, totaling approximately 650,000 color slides, dating from the 1950s to the early 2000s. Many of these images have remained — until now — unseen to the public eye, and untouched for over 20 years. With the help of Magnum’s Archive and Production teams, and the Fujifilm GFX 100 II medium-format digital camera, a selection of these exclusive images are finally being revealed to the public for the first time.
