Fernando 2008

Overview

Robert Frank cared deeply about his friends and family, dedicating many of his photographs and films to them. This, the last video he completed in his lifetime, is a memento mori of his Swiss artist friend Fernando Garzoni: a watercolor, a glass of champagne, a handful of snapshots, a visit to a Jacques-Henri Lartigue show, a walk in the woods, a shy smile. — Museum of Modern Art
