About Amazonia by Sebastiao Salgado
So for six years Sebastião Salgado traveled the Brazilian Amazon and photographed the unparalleled beauty of this extraordinary region. The rainforest, the rivers, the mountains, as well as the people who live there — this irreplaceable treasure of humanity in which the immense power of nature is felt like nowhere else on earth.- “Amazonia is dedicated to the indigenous peoples of Brazil’s Amazon region. It is a celebration of the survival of their cultures, customs, and languages. It is also a tribute to their role as the guardians of the beauty, natural resources, and biodiversity of the planet’s largest rainforest in the face of unrelenting assault by the outside world. We are eternally grateful to them for allowing us to share their lives.” - Sebastião Salgado and Lélia Wanick Salgado
- “Amazonia by Sebastiao Salgado, a stunning succession of black and white panoramas. Looking through his images, I feel the same awe I would feel in front of sublime paintings: serpentine rivers flow through seemingly limitless forests, sheer-sided rock escarpments vanish into skies, and apocalyptic clouds loom over wispy treetops.” - The Guardian
