Magnum Photos

Exhibition - Abbas, 45 Years in Photography 

A. Abbas 

For almost 45 years I have roamed the world, in search of images of upheaval; initially political and social, then later, religious.
Retrospectives are best done when the photographer is dead - there will be no surprises then - or so I thought until the National Museum of Singapore suggested I have one.
As I am still roaming the world, let’s just consider this retrospective (with some modesty - who knows how many more years I shall roam?) The First 45 Years
Exhibition at the National Museum of Singapore | Sat 18 Jun 2011 - Sun 18 Sep 2011 | 10am - 6pm...
