Through her work, most of which originated over a period of a few years in the 1920s and 1930s, Krull created an impressive portfolio that tackled artistic photography, advertisements, portraits and photojournalism. As one of the most famous female photographers of the inter-war period, she was an avant-gardist known primarily for her artistic nudes and, later, for her documentary photography. Considered by many to be a multi-genre modernist trailblazer (Man Ray called her his equal), her work has, nonetheless, remained largely under-exhibited. A new retrospective at Paris&#8217; Jeu de Plume is set to change that, and introduce the work of Krull to new audiences.<\/p>\n<p>The exhibition focuses on the period from 1926 to 1935, when Krull created many of her most important images and during which time she dedicated herself to the photojournalism genre, which had, until now, remained largely under-seen. Some of Krull&#8217;s favorite themes\u2014the female Parisian working class, modernity and machinery\u2014are heavily prominent throughout the show. One hundred and fifty of these prints are\u00a0presented at the exhibition.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3777\" style=\"width: 610px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3777\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3777\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/notofu.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/germaine.jpg?resize=600%2C450\" alt=\"\u00c9tude publicitaire pour Paul Poiret, 1926\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-3777\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">\u00c9tude publicitaire pour Paul Poiret, 1926<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3778\" style=\"width: 1030px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3778\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3778\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/notofu.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/germaine3.jpeg?resize=1020%2C745\" alt=\"Nudes, 1924\" width=\"1020\" height=\"745\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-3778\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Nudes, 1924<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3779\" style=\"width: 1030px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3779\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3779\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/notofu.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/germaine4.jpeg?resize=1020%2C756\" alt=\"Rue Auber, Paris, circa 1928\" width=\"1020\" height=\"756\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-3779\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Rue Auber, Paris, circa 1928<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3780\" style=\"width: 510px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3780\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3780\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/notofu.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/germaine-krull03.jpg?resize=500%2C699\" alt=\"Etude Publicitaire pour Paul Pioret, 1926\" width=\"500\" height=\"699\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-3780\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Etude Publicitaire pour Paul Pioret, 1926<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3782\" style=\"width: 731px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3782\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3782\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/notofu.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/08c4fad5-e2e1-4b46-b465-07d3cdc239b5-721x1020.jpeg?resize=721%2C1020\" alt=\"Marseille, June 1930\" width=\"721\" height=\"1020\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-3782\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Marseille, June 1930<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3783\" style=\"width: 774px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3783\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3783\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/notofu.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/cd2cb132-9e4c-4f13-a392-a0f100969ede-764x1020.jpeg?resize=764%2C1020\" alt=\"Study for La Folle d\u2019Itteville, 1931\" width=\"764\" height=\"1020\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-3783\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Study for La Folle d\u2019Itteville, 1931<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.jeudepaume.org\/index.php?page=article&amp;idArt=2238\" target=\"_blank\">Germaine Krull (1897-1985): A Photographer&#8217;s Journey<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\nThrough September 27, 2015<br \/>\nJeu De Paume, 1, place de la Concorde, 75008 Paris<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pioneering modernist photographer Germaine Krull was as much a photojournalist as she was a story-teller.
