Exhibition - Reflections from the Heart: Photographs by David Seymour 

David Seymour 

Reflections from the Heart, a survey exhibition of photographs by founding Magnum photographer David Seymour.

Born in Warsaw, Poland, David Szymin adopted the professional moniker "Chim," a French phonetic abbreviation of his surname, upon beginning his career in Paris in 1933. (Later, during World War II, he changed his name to David Seymour to avoid Nazi reprisals against his family in occupied Poland). One of the great pioneers of small camera photo-reportage, Chim applied a skilled hand and a perceptive eye to photographing many poignant and dramatic events of the 20th century. Remembered...
