Hi
This may be a bit off the beaten track as far as Museums are
concerned, but I am trying to track down a poem about the
photographer Robert Capa, and wondered whether any list-ees have
heard of it...
The poem refers to Capa's quote that 'if your photographs aren't good
enough, you're not close enough', as well as his famous photograph of
the Buddhist monk who set himself on fire to protest against Vietnam.
I recall that one line from the poem was, "How close is close enough
Capa?'.
I hope a poetry-literate person out there can help!
