René Burri (1933-2014) is one of the most important figures in the history of Swiss photography. Initially commissioned by various important magazines of the time, such as Life, Paris Match, Look and Du, and later as a member of the unique photographer co-operative Magnum Photos, he documented political upheavals and important contemporaries around the world. His aesthetic approach to reportage, which strives for dignity, characterizes his iconic images just as much as the completely unknown subjects brought together in the selection carefully curated between the gallery and the family.
