Cartier-Bresson's Best Answer

Henri Cartier-Bresson: The Modern Century is on at MoMA until June 28. I loved the quote on the wall: Cartier-Bresson liked to photograph his subjects in their homes. When his subjects asked how long the shoot would take, his answer was: "Longer than the dentist, but shorter than the psychoanalyst."

There are a number of curator led talks at the following dates and times:
