Magnum Photos is an international photographic cooperative owned by its photographer-members, with offices in Paris, New York City, London and Tokyo. It was founded in 1947 in Paris by photographers Robert Capa, David "Chim" Seymour, Maria Eisner, Henri Cartier-Bresson, George Rodger, William Vandivert, and Rita Vandivert. Its photographers retain all copyrights to their own work.

In 2010, MSD Capital acquired a collection of nearly 200,000 original press prints of images taken by Magnum photographers, which in 2013 it donated to the Harry Ransom Center.

Founding of agency

Magnum was founded in Paris in 1947 by Robert Capa, David "Chim" Seymour, Henri Cartier-Bresson, George Rodger and William Vandivert (all photographers), Rita Vandivert and Maria Eisner, based on an idea of Capa's. (Seymour, Cartier-Bresson and Rodger were all absent from the meeting at which it was founded.Russell Miller, Magnum: Fifty Years at the Front Line of History (New York: Grove, 1998; {{ISBN|0-8021-3653-2}}), pp. 49–50. In response to a letter telling him that he was a member, Rodger wrote that Magnum seemed a good idea but, "It all sounded too halcyon to be true," when Capa had told him of it and, "I rather dismissed the whole thing from my mind".Miller, Magnum, p. 53)

Rita Vandivert was the first President, and head of the New York office; Maria Eisner the head of the Paris office.Miller, Magnum, p.51. The plan was for Rodger to cover Africa and the Middle East; Cartier-Bresson to cover south and east Asia; Seymour and William Vandivert to cover Europe and the United States, respectively; and Capa to be free to follow his curiosity and events.

Magnum is one of the first photographic cooperatives, owned and administered entirely by members. The staff serve a support role for the photographers, who retain all copyrights to the photographs they take.

The Magnum cooperative has included photojournalists from across the world, who have covered many historical events of the 20th century. The cooperative's archive includes photographs depicting family life, drugs, religion, war, poverty, famine, crime, government and celebrities.

Although it has been asserted that the name "Magnum" was chosen because the founding members always drank a bottle of champagne during the first meetings,Die Leica-Geschichte, TV-Documentary, can be viewed [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eWwarnnM71A here] (YouTube). Russell Miller writes:

It was . . . presumably agreed by those present [at the first meeting] that Magnum was a fine new name for such a bold new venture, indicative as it was of greatness in its literal Latin translation, toughness in its gun connotation and celebration in its champagne mode.Miller, Magnum, p.49.

Governance

Magnum is owned by its photographers, who act as shareholders. Each full member of Magnum has a vote in proposals made at a meeting held once a year, called the Annual General Meeting (AGM).{{Cite web|url=http://pro.magnumphotos.com/C.aspx?VP3=CMS3&VF=MAX_2&FRM=Frame:MAX_6&RW=1449&RH=1301#/CMS3&VF=MAX_2&FRM=Frame:MAX_6&RW=1449&RH=1301|title=Magnum Photos History of Magnum|website=pro.magnumphotos.com|access-date=22 February 2018}} Photographers with the status of contributor or correspondent are represented by Magnum but have no voting rights. Full members can choose to become contributors after 23 years of membership; this status gives them increased liberty to work outside Magnum, at the cost of their voting rights.{{Cite web|url=https://pro.magnumphotos.com/C.aspx?VP3=CMS3&VF=MAX_2&FRM=Frame:MAX_6&RW=1449&RH=1301#/CMS3&VF=MAX_2&FRM=Frame:MAX_6&RW=1449&RH=1301|title=Magnum Photos History of Magnum|website=pro.magnumphotos.com|access-date=22 February 2018}}

Elections of new members

File:Magnum,_Our_Own_Agency.webm about Magnum]]

In the early years of Magnum, membership had generally come about by the personal invitation of Robert Capa. However, in 1955 a three-stage membership system was set up that continues to this dayMiller, Magnum, p.127. and is described below. Until 1953 there were also a large number of stringers who used Magnum but were not members.Miller, Magnum, pp. 70, 97, 106.

Magnum's photographers meet once a year, during the last weekend in June, in New York City, Paris or London, to discuss the cooperative's business. One day of the meeting is reserved to review potential new members' portfolios and vote on admitting individuals. An approved applicant is invited to become a 'Nominee Member' of Magnum, a category of membership that provides a chance for members and the individual to get to know each other, but that includes no binding commitments on either side.

After two years of Nominee membership, a photographer may present another portfolio if wanting to apply for 'Associate Membership'. If successful, the photographer is bound by the rules of the agency, and enjoys its facilities and worldwide representation. The difference between an Associate Member and a full Member is that an Associate is not a Director of the Company and does not have voting rights in the corporate decision-making. After two more years, an Associate wanting to be considered for full membership presents another portfolio of work for consideration by the members. Once elected as a full member, the individual is a member of Magnum for life or for as long as the photographer chooses.

Accusations of child abuse

Magnum Photos' digital archive constitutes more than 1 million images, that Magnum licenses through its website.{{cite news|first1=Peter|last1=Beaumont|access-date=2020-08-19|title=Magnum reviewing archive as concerns raised about images of child sexual exploitation|url=https://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2020/aug/14/magnum-reviewing-archive-as-concerns-raised-about-images-of-child-sexual-exploitation|newspaper=The Guardian|date=14 August 2020|issn=0261-3077}} In August 2020, the Magnum website was taken offline after issues were raised by the Fstoppers photography website and amplified on social media by others including Jörg Colberg. Given the tags on the photos, there was concern that Magnum was making available photographs of children featuring nudity; that documented encounters that constituted a record of acts of child sexual abuse; and that were problematic{{clarify|date=April 2024}} in terms of the way they had been labelled for searching.{{cite web|first1=Hakim|last1=Bishara|access-date=2020-08-19|title=Magnum Photos Will Reexamine Its Archive Following Outcry Against Child Exploitation Images|url=https://hyperallergic.com/583035/magnum-photos-reexamine-archive/|date=17 August 2020|website=Hyperallergic}} "Much of the criticism [. . .] has focused on a series of photographs by the US photographer David Alan Harvey from his time documenting sex workers in Bangkok in 1989."{{cite web|access-date=2020-08-19|title=Magnum Investigating Archive over Images of Alleged Child Sexual Abuse|url=https://www.artforum.com/news/magnum-investigating-archive-over-images-of-alleged-child-sexual-abuse-83680|website=Artforum|date=17 August 2020 }} In a statement Magnum said it will re-examine the content of its archive, and has since made its website available again but without Harvey's Bangkok series.{{cite web|access-date=2020-08-19|title=After allegations of child abuse imagery in their archive, Magnum photo agency announce major review|url=http://www.theartnewspaper.com/news/magnum-photo-agency-announce-major-review-of-archive|website=The Art Newspaper|date=17 August 2020}} Harvey was later suspended for a year following a formal investigation into sexual misconduct allegations against him.

Photographic collection

In February 2010, Magnum announced that Michael Dell's venture capital firm MSD Capital had acquired a collection of nearly 200,000 original press prints of images taken by Magnum photographers. It had formed a partnership with the Harry Ransom Center at The University of Texas at Austin to preserve, catalog, and make photographs available to the general public.{{cite news |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2010/02/02/arts/design/02magnum.html?scp=1&sq=magnum&st=cse |title=News Photos, on the Move, Make News |author=Randy Kennedy |work=The New York Times |date=1 February 2010 |access-date=3 April 2016}}{{cite web |url=http://www.utexas.edu/news/2010/02/02/hrc_magnum_photos/ |title=Historic Photo Print Archive, Featuring Iconic 20th Century Images, Has New Owner and Home |author=Press Release |publisher=University of Texas at Austin |date=2 February 2010 |access-date=3 April 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110604060029/http://www.utexas.edu/news/2010/02/02/hrc_magnum_photos/ |archive-date=4 June 2011 |url-status=dead }}{{cite news |url=http://www.dailytexanonline.com/life-arts/ut-receives-historical-treasure-1.2139790 |title=UT Receives Historical Treasure: Harry Ransom Center acquires 20th-century photography archive |author=Gerald Rich |work=The Daily Texan |date=4 February 2010 |access-date=9 February 2010 }}{{Dead link|date=March 2020 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }} In September 2013 it was announced MSD Capital donated the collection to the Ransom Center.{{cite news |url=https://dealbook.nytimes.com/2013/09/21/dell-led-trio-to-donate-magnum-photo-archive-to-university-of-texas/?_r=0 |title=Dell-Led Trio to Donate Magnum Photo Archive to University of Texas |author=Michael J. de la Merced |work=The New York Times |date=21 September 2013 |access-date=3 April 2016}} A preliminary inventory is available for researchers who wish to use the collection.{{cite web |url=http://research.hrc.utexas.edu:8080/hrcxtf/view?docId=ead/00502.xml |title=Magnum Photos, Inc.: A Preliminary Inventory of Its Collection in the Photography Collection at the Harry Ransom Center |publisher=University of Texas at Austin |author=Harry Ransom Center |author-link=Harry Ransom Center |access-date=3 April 2016 |archive-date=26 November 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121126051014/http://research.hrc.utexas.edu:8080/hrcxtf/view?docId=ead%2F00502.xml |url-status=dead }}

That was the positive view. The negative aspect is found in a draft for a letter to Magnum in which Gene tried to respond to a recent decision by Magnum's members to censure him: 'I stand thoroughly censured, I'm broke, desperate, tired – however, the censure is right, I am guilty. I trust that the photographers of Magnum are willing to stand on their public records. I trust that the photographers of Magnum are willing that I publicly evaluate them accordingly as they have achieved. I am not interested in their excuses accordingly to their private confessions. Their blames, including Smith, will not be of my concern.'"
