Capa fled political repression in Hungary when he was a teenager, moving to Berlin, where he enrolled in college. He witnessed the rise of Hitler, which led him to move to Paris, where he changed his name and became a photojournalist.

战地摄影师罗伯特•卡帕一生报道过五场大战:西班牙内战、中国抗日战争、第二次世界大战、第一次阿以战争,和越南抗法战争。这些穿梭在展览11个篇章,全面呈现卡帕一生传奇的影像(1932-1954年), 见证他以生命做赌注,亲历战争的第一次现场,正视战争的人性。

 

 

Arguably the greatest combat and adventure photographer in history, he subsequently covered five wars, including the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression in China, with his photos published in major magazines and newspapers.

 

He documented the course of World War II in London, North Africa, Italy and the liberation of Paris. In 1947, for his work recording World War II in pictures, U.S. General Dwight D. Eisenhower awarded Capa the Medal of Freedom. That same year, Capa co-founded Magnum Photos in Paris. The organization was the first cooperative agency for worldwide freelance photographers. Hungary has issued a stamp and a gold coin in his honor.
