However, arguably one of the founding fathers of reportage is inevitably missing from the list. A man who was at the very forefront of this photographic revolution and who, like those mentioned above, did much to change the world of photography. Kurt Hutton – arguably every bit as influential and ground-breaking as his counterparts – did much to usher in the new era of photo-documentary and was one of an elite band of photojournalists to first utilize the Leica in Britain, fundamentally changing how we viewed our world in the process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ‘revelatory experience’ – when one comes across Kurt’s imagery for the first time – seems to be a regular occurrence and happened again recently with none other than the Leica company itself – needless to say, an exhibition is now touring Leica galleries across Europe as a result. It is baffling why Hutton is not mentioned in the same breath as those ‘greats’ listed above but after a hiatus of some 70 years since the last ‘Kurt Hutton’ book, we can at least take another small step in establishing Hutton as one of the true giants of 20\u003csup\u003eth\u003c\/sup\u003e century photojournalism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003eText by John Chillingworth and Colin Wilkinson\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDuotone:  290 x 220mm portrait + 132pp\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSoftcover: 2014\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003ePrice at time of listing £20.00\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shop from Crisis Online","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56754497192319,"sku":"H00068","price":8.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0511\/4714\/5406\/files\/BCP-WEB-17.jpg?v=1768383966","url":"https:\/\/shopfromcrisis.org.uk\/products\/kurt-hutton-the-quiet-pioneer","provider":"Shop from Crisis Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
