For more than four decades Robert Lebeck has been aiming his camera at life to portray the reality of what he sees directly in front of him. It is this straightforward, unadorned style that makes Lebeck's pictures so immediate and powerful. One of the world's foremost photojournalists, he has traveled throughout the globe to bring home images that resonate with emotion and realism. From the Berlin's crowded storefronts to Africa's disordered streets, from Mother Teresa's hospice in Calcutta to the funeral of Robert Kennedy, Lebeck captures moments without interpretation. His images combine the acuity of the surgeon's scalpel with the sober vision of a man who isn't afraid to look life directly in the eye. Avoiding the sentimentality -- and brutality -- that so often accompanies today's photojournalism, Lebeck stands as an inspiration to those who would aspire to capture moments of significance without comment or criticism, knowing, like the best artists, how to let the moment speak for itself.
