Robert Capa retrospective in Berlin

Martin-Gropius-Bau Berlin 'Robert Capa - Retrospective'

BERLIN, Germany, March 24/PRNewswire/ --

More than 50,000 visitors have already visited the large Robert Capa retrospective in Berlin. The exhibition is open until April 18th, Wednesdays through Mondays from 10:00 AM to 8:00 PM; closed Tuesdays.

Fifty years after the death of Robert Capa, 300 photographs look back on this great legend who became famous in 1936 for documenting the Spanish Civil War and the photograph of 'Fallen Soldiers'.

Capa's work is a manifesto against war, injustice and oppression. Like his friend and colleague, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Capa defined an era of great photojournalism.

This comprehensive retrospective of Robert Capa, the first of its kind in Germany, displays never-before-published photographs in addition to his war reportages. The exhibition can only be seen in Berlin.
