Mexican Notebooks 1934–1964 captures Henri Cartier-Bresson’s profound fascination with Mexico across two distinct visits separated by thirty years. In 1934, as a young man traveling with an ethnographic mission, Cartier-Bresson wandered the markets and streets of Mexico City and Tehuantepec, producing some of his most raw and surrealist works. When he returned in 1964, his gaze had matured into that of the seasoned Magnum master, yet his ability to find the “decisive moment” in the everyday life of the Mexican people remained unparalleled. Featuring 53 black-and-white photographs and an introductory essay by Carlos Fuentes, the book serves as a visual dialogue between a legendary photographer and a culture he deeply admired.
