Hello
readers and readings, how are you?
I recently went to an art
exhibition with my school in a unit of SESC of my city '' Genesis: Sebastião
Salgado -Selection Works "
(Sebastião Ribiro Salgado Júnior- Brazilian
photographer)
Genesis: Sebastião Salgado
“Genesis is
a journey in search of the planet as it existed ,before modernization
accelerate and move away the essential core. It is a search for terrestrial and
aquatic landscapes untouched to this day; a journey toward the animals and
human groups who managed to escape of the changes required by the contemporary
world.
It is this
hidden beauty, defended and protected that Genesis want to share. We do a
tribute to this our fragile planet we have a duty to protect”
Lélia Wanick Salgado(spouse
of Sebastião Salgado)-Curadora
” The
Sebastião Salgado lenses witnessed over the past few decades,precious facets
unknown of the world. And the world
through your photos, might reflect on these facets, hitherto veiled. This is
especially true in the case of Genesis, exhibition that brings together images
taken from 2004 to 2011 in areas that remain untouched by the changes
implemented by man.
As occurred
in the series “Trabalhadores” and “Êxodos”, Salgado gets involved in a
global-scale enterprise. The difference lies in the role of the force system the nature, which now and
then appear the human being in communion state. Superlative distances, absence
of conventional transport means, temperature extremes, altitude and humidity: the
questions that away us these contexts reflect in the photographs,metamorphosed
into gradations expressive of black and white.”
Danilo Santos de
Miranda
(regional director Sesc
São Paulo)
‘’In
addition to bringing the public eye the beauty of isolated people and great
landscapes, Genesis is a call for a fight.
The fact is
that we can not continue polluting our soil, water and air. We need to act now
to preserve land and water still untouched, and to protect the environment,
sanctuary of animal and ancient peoples.
And we must
go further. We should try to reverse the damage.
Our modest
contribution was reforest land in southeastern Brazil. Over the past 15 years
the Instituto Terra -our organization non-profit - plant about two million
trees, more than 300 different species already have flourished there”
