Text from Wikipedia.com:

Member of Magnum Photos, a renowned American photographer who is based in Paris. Richard Kalvar is known for his ability to catch the absurd within the banality of everyday life, which are decrypted solely by the viewer. One can view him as not being a traditional photojournalist but as an "anti" photojournalist.

His photos give his personal view of the world, which is colored with humor and irony.
