If you have rather more than \u00a350 to spare and feel like indulging yourself, then the news (from PetaPixel<\/a>) that MOMA is having a clear-out sale of prints it no longer needs may come as good news.<\/p>\n

Over 400 prints are up for sale, mainly on-line through Christies – and you can browse the lots on-line<\/a>, though the news has come a little late as by the time you read this the auctions for the October sales will probably be over. The site lists the schedule for the sales:<\/p>\n

October 2017
\nMoMA: Pictorialism into Modernism
\nMoMA: Henri Cartier-Bresson<\/p>\n

December 2017
\nMoMA: Women in Photography<\/p>\n

January 2018
\nMoMA: Garry Winogrand
\nMoMA: Bill Brandt<\/p>\n

April 2018
\nMoMA: Walker Evans
\nMoMA: Tracing Photography\u2019s History<\/p>\n

The 400 pictures includes some of the better-known images by many of the photographers included, and the prices are likely to be high. But its a good opportunity to view a great set of images on-line.<\/p>\n

And if, like me, you can’t afford to bid for ‘HENRI CARTIER\u2013BRESSON (1908\u20132004) Behind the Gare St. Lazare, Paris, 1932’ for which, as I write the current bid is USD 35,000 (\u00a327,741) then you can console yourself with the thought that its actually much better to own a whole book of his pictures, such as ‘The Decisive Moment<\/em>‘, republished in 2014\/5<\/a>, which you can still buy on the web for a little over \u00a3100 including postage. Or if that is beyond your budget, you can buy the perfectly adequate though not quite as desirable Photo Poche or Aperture volumes of his work secondhand for little more than a fiver.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
