Dernière représentante de l'école humaniste, incarnée par Robert Doisneau, Willy
Ronis, Édouard Boubat ou Brassaï, Sabine Weiss (née en 1924) occupe une
place unique au sein de la photographie française. Pendant près de soixante ans,
elle a exploré une grande variété de domaines, du reportage au portrait et de la
mode à la publicité, en parallèle d'essais plus personnels. Au fil de ses multiples
pérégrinations, elle a oeuvré pour la presse illustrée française et internationale, avec
une passion jamais démentie et une curiosité insatiable.
La photographe dévoile ici pour la première fois ses archives, qui recèlent des
documents d'époque et des clichés pour certains inédits engrangés tout au long
d'une carrière prolifique. Hommage à une figure indépendante et vive, sensible à
l'être humain et à sa vie quotidienne, cet ouvrage laisse entrevoir les mille et une
facettes de ce trésor photographique.

The last representative of the humanist school, embodied by Robert Doisneau,
Willy Ronis, Édouard Boubat and Brassaï, Sabine Weiss (born in 1924) occupies
a unique place within French photography. For over a period of almost sixty years,
her work spanned a wide variety of domains, from reportage to portraits and from
fashion to advertising, as well as her own personal work. She travelled extensively,
working for both the French and international illustrated press, demonstrating an
avid passion for photography, coupled with an insatiable curiosity.
Here, the photographer reveals her archives for the first time, which include original
documents and some previously unseen images, amassed over the course of
a prolific career. A tribute to an independent and lively personality, with a great
sensitivity to people and the everyday details of daily life, this volume offers an
insight into the thousand and one facets of the photographic treasure trove that is
the work of Sabine Weiss.
