And so it ends ( updated )
July 23, 2009 by pmelcher.
Gamma, recently renamed Eyedea by its new owners, Green recovery, is closing forever. The official date will be the 28 of July, 2009. This is a very sad day for photography worldwide. The “corpocrates” have won. They have succeeded in destroying one of the most beautiful photo agency in the world.
Hopefully we will see a rebirth of Rapho and others thanks to the will power of its photographers.
Update : an article, in French, confirming the story. More to come
Update number 2 : “In wanting to preserve it, Hachette destroyed it ” Raymond Depardon, Founder of Gamma. Read the short interview here, along with a quick reaction by Eyedea current CEO.
