Notes sur la photographie:
Cette œuvre est l'une des photographies inédites et iconiques d'Henri Dauman. Jane Fonda s'est prêtée au jeu des portraits avec délectation. Mais les magazines, dont Life Magazine, ont préféré éditer des photos plus classiques de l'actrice.
Aujourd'hui, cette image, symbolise à elle seule l'influence de la Pop Culture dont a été témoin Henri Dauman.
La restauration du film et l'édition de l'image est la première édition de cette photographie. Effectivement, elle n'avait jamais été éditée auparavant.

L'image est issue d'un travail de numérisation en février 2014, à New York, directement de la diapositive d'origine. Elle a été restaurée à des fins d'exposition et elle est présentée et tirée dans son cadrage original.
Ce tirage est limité à 3 exemplaires. Ici nous vous proposons le premier de la série. Les autres exemplaires ont été offerts à diverses personnalités lors de la rétrospective "The Manhattan Darkroom" sur le photographe au Palais d'Iéna en 2014.

Notes on photography :
This work is one of Henri Dauman's unpublished and iconic photographs. Jane Fonda took part in the portrait game with relish. But magazines, including Life Magazine, preferred to publish more classic photos of the actress.
Today, that image, in itself symbolizes the influence of pop culture which was Henri Dauman witness.
The restoration of the film and the editing of the image is the first edition of this photograph. Indeed, it had never been published before.

The image was scanned in February 2014, in New York, directly from the original transparency. It has been restored for exhibition purposes and is presented in its original image frame.
This edition is limited to 3 copies. Here we offer you the first of the series. The other copies were offered to various personalities during the retrospective "The Manhattan Darkroom" on the photographer at the Palais d'Iéna in 2014.

Henri Dauman is perhaps the most famous photographer you've never heard of, at least not by name.
His journalistic photos are sharp and thoughtful. He has depicted, for Life Magazine , The New York Times , Newsweek or Paris Match , a changing America torn by its exuberance and its contradictions.

Henri Dauman's work is atypical. It has witnessed important historical events that include the iconic images of Marilyn Monroe, Andy Warhol, Jackie and John Kennedy or the demonstrations for American civil rights, the uprising of Buddhist priests in the middle of the Vietnam War.
But his eye cinematographically dissects each subject. Henri Dauman is an engaging storyteller.
From Paris where he escaped the Shoah to Manhattan where he reinvented himself, he is one of the most prominent photojournalists of the 20th century.

Henri Dauman's photographic work offers us a new look at America. She depicts this key moment – the 1960s – when new arts emerged, when an increasingly disparate society asserted itself frankly, when the political and media worlds came together.

After escaping the Velodrome d'Hiver Roundup and the concentration camps, Henri Dauman emigrated to the United States in 1950. The seventeen-year-old young man remained fascinated by the power and urban architectural elegance of Manhattan. Throughout his career, he never stopped portraying the only city that matters: New York. The Looking Up series is part of the MoMa collection in New York.

Pugnacious, he became a recognized photojournalist and collaborated with all the major American and European titles, constantly asserting his independence with energy. His priority is to tell stories. The man confesses his debt to the cinema and its grammar, he uses sequences to meet the main objective of the press of the time: to focus on the photographic image.

He is also the originator of the defense of the copyrights of photographers in the United States for the American Society of Media Photographers (ASMP).

The iconic photograph of Jacqueline Kennedy at the funeral of assassinated US President John F. Kennedy is part of one of the illustrations regularly featured regularly by Life magazine. This photograph was also used many times by Andy Warhol for his paintings Nine, Twelve and Sixteen Jackies .

It was only at the age of 81 that he would be at the center of a first exhaustive retrospective at the Palais d'Iéna in Paris in 2014 with the retrospective exhibition The Manhattan Darkroom and an American biographical film Looking . Up in 2018. It will also be exhibited at the essential Nicéphore Niépce photography museum in Chalon-sur-Saône or at the Breman Museum in Atlanta.

Because of his unpublished work, Henri Dauman is often compared, by some, to Vivian Maier. More than 1 million photographs still remain unexplored today.
