Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. In GENESIS, my camera allowed nature to speak to me. And it was my privilege to listen." -Sebastiao SalgadoOn a very fortuitous day in 1970, 26-year-old Sebastiao Salgado held a camera for the first time. When he looked through the viewfinder, he experienced a revelation: suddenly life made sense. From that day onward-though it took years of hard work before he had the experience to earn his living as a photographer-the camera became his tool for interacting with the world. Salgado, who "always preferred the chiaroscuro palette of black-and-white images," shot very little color in his early career before giving it up completely.Raised on a farm in Brazil, Salgado possessed a deep love and respect for nature; he was also particularly sensitive to the ways in which human beings are affected by their often devastating socio-economic conditions. Of the myriad works Salgado has produced in his acclaimed career, three long-term projects stand out: Workers (1993), documenting the vanishing way of life of manual laborers across the world; Migrations (2000), a tribute to mass migration driven by hunger, natural disasters, environmental degradation and demographic pressure; and this new opus, GENESIS, the result of an epic eight-year expedition to rediscover the mountains, deserts and oceans, the animals and peoples that have so far escaped the imprint of modern society-the land and life of a still-pristine planet. "Some 46% of the planet is still as it was in the time of genesis," Salgado reminds us. "We must preserve what exists." The GENESIS project, along with the Salgados' Instituto Terra, are dedicated to showing the beauty of our planet, reversing the damage done to it, and preserving it for the future.Over 30 trips-traveled by foot, light aircraft, seagoing vessels, canoes, and even balloons, through extreme heat and cold and in sometimes dangerous conditions-Salgado created a collection of images showing us nature, animals, and indigenous peoples in breathtaking beauty. What does one discover in GENESIS? The animal species and volcanoes of the Galapagos; penguins, sea lions, cormorants, and whales of the Antarctic and South Atlantic; Brazilian alligators and jaguars; African lions, leopards, and elephants; the isolated Zo'e tribe deep in the Amazon jungle; the Stone Age Korowai people of West Papua; nomadic Dinka cattle farmers in Sudan; Nenet nomads and their reindeer herds in the Arctic Circle; Mentawai jungle communities on islands west of Sumatra; the icebergs of the Antarctic; the volcanoes of Central Africa and the Kamchatka Peninsula; Saharan deserts; the Negro and Jurua rivers in the Amazon; the ravines of the Grand Canyon; the glaciers of Alaska. and beyond. Having dedicated so much time, energy, and passion to the making of this work, Salgado calls GENESIS "my love letter to the planet. Sebastiao Salgado's haunting black-and-white photographs from the GENESIS project record landscapes and people unchanged in the devastating onslaught of modern society and development.

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - 'In GENESIS sprach die Natur durch meine Kamera zu mir. Und ich durfte zuhören.' -Sebastião SalgadoSebastião Salgado war 26 Jahre alt, als er 1970 zum ersten Mal in seinem Leben einen Fotoapparat in die Hand nahm. Ein Moment, der ihn von Grund auf veränderte. Durch den Sucher einer Kamera betrachtet, ergab das Leben für ihn plötzlich einen ganz neuen Sinn - er hatte sein Medium gefunden, auch wenn es noch Jahre harter Arbeit erfordern sollte, bis er seinen Lebensunterhalt tatsächlich als Fotograf verdienen konnte. Salgado, der 'immer das Chiaroscuro von Schwarz-Weiß-Bildern bevorzugte', fotografierte schon am Anfang seiner Karriere nur sehr wenig in Farbe, bis er es schließlich ganz einstellte.Aufgewachsen auf einer Farm in Brasilien, empfand Salgado von Kind an eine tiefe Verbundenheit mit der Natur. Zugleich entwickelte er aber auch einen wachen Blick für die prekären sozioökonomischen Verhältnisse, unter denen viele Menschen ihr Leben fristen müssen. Von den unzähligen Werken, die Sebastião Salgado geschaffen hat, ragen drei Langzeitprojekte besonders hervor: Workers (1993) dokumentiert das allmähliche Verschwinden traditioneller handwerklicher Arbeit weltweit und Migrations (2000) die massenhaften Wanderungsbewegungen, die durch Kriege, Unterdrückung, Hunger und Naturkatastrophen sowie Umweltzerstörung und den Druck des demografischen Wandels angetrieben werden. Sein neues Werk, GENESIS, hat sich ein Ziel gesetzt, dem auch das von Sebastião und Lélia Salgado begründete Instituto Terra verpflichtet ist: unser Bewusstsein dafür zu schärfen, wie kostbar die letzten unberührten Winkel unserer Welt sind - für uns selbst wie für zukünftige Generationen. Und was eignete sich dafür besser, als uns die Schönheit dieser Welt vor Augen zu führen GENESIS, das Ergebnis von acht Jahren intensiver Reisetätigkeit, zeigt uns nun diese letzten Naturräume - Wüsten, Meere, Urwälder -, die dem Zugriff unserer modernen Zivilisation noch entgangen sind, und die Menschen und Tiere, die in ihnen leben. 'Rund 46 % des Planeten sind noch immer in dem Zustand, in dem er sich bei seiner Entstehung befunden hat', erinnert Salgado. 'Wir müssen das Bestehende bewahren.'Salgado hat mehr als 30 Reisen unternommen, in kleinen Propellermaschinen, zu Fuß, mit dem Schiff, im Kanu und sogar im Fesselballon, und dabei klimatischen Extremen und lebensbedrohlichen Situationen getrotzt, um Bilder zu sammeln, die uns Natur, Tierwelt und eingeborene Völker in atemberaubender Pracht vor Augen führen. GENESIS entführt uns in die archaische Vulkanlandschaft der Galapagosinseln, zeigt uns die Seelöwen, Kormorane, Pinguine und Wale in der Antarktis und im Südatlantik, die Alligatoren und Jaguare des brasilianischen Urwalds und das Großwild Afrikas. Wir begegnen dem isoliert lebenden Volk der Zo'é im Dschungel Brasiliens, den Korowai in West-Papua, dem Nomadenvolk der Dinka im Sudan, den Nenzen mit ihren Rentierherden am Polarkreis und den Bewohnern der Mentawaiinseln westlich von Sumatra. Mit Salgado stehen wir vor den Eisbergen der Antarktis, den Vulkanen Zentralafrikas und der Kamtschatka-Halbinsel, an den Flussläufen des Negro und Juruá im Amazonasgebiet, vor den Schluchten des Grand Canyon und den Gletschern Alaskas. All die Zeit, Energie und Leidenschaft, die in die Entstehung dieses Werkes geflossen sind, machen GENESIS zu Sebastião Salgados 'Liebeserklärung an unseren Planeten'.…
