Sebastião Ribeiro Salgado Júnior

fotograaf

Sebastião Salgado was een beroemde Braziliaanse sociaal-documentaire fotograaf en fotojournalist, bekend om zijn grootschalige projecten waarin hij menselijke arbeid, milieuproblemen en culturele tradities vastlegde. Hij reisde naar meer dan 120 landen en produceerde iconische werken zoals 'Other Americas', 'Sahel', 'Workers', 'Migrations' en 'Genesis'. Zijn stijl wordt gekenmerkt door een dramatisch gebruik van zwart-witcompositie en lichtinval om de spirituele en politieke landschappen van rurale gemeenschappen en industriële locaties vast te leggen. Naast fotografie was Salgado een milieuactivist die in Brazilië het Instituto Terra medeoprichtte om het Atlantische Woud te herstellen. Hij diende als UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador en ontving talloze internationale onderscheidingen, waaronder de Peace Prize of the German Book Trade en de Prince of Asturias Awards.[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42,43,44,45,46,47,48,49,50,51,52,53,54,55,56,57,58,59]
