Part one/The Inspiration: Brassaï







I first encountered the work of Brassa
ï on a cold winter's day in Paris - just another nostalgic tourist desperately seeking a Paris that they were never part of and that has long since gone. I went into an art bookstore and found this man's photographs - lonely cold streetscapes, brothels, crossdressers and lovers. This is Paris. This is Brassaï.
