This book presents a collection of black and white photographs from Sebastião Salgado's Genesis project, documenting landscapes and people that have remained unchanged despite the challenges of modern society. The images, taken during an eight-year expedition, are organized into six geographic chapters: Southern Planet Zone, Sanctuaries, Africa, Northern Planet Zone, Amazonia and Pantanal. The project seeks to show the beauty of the planet, reverse the damage caused and preserve it for the future. Sebastião Salgado, with his mastery of monochrome, offers a new dimension of black and white photography, reminiscent of great masters such as Rembrandt and Georges de La Tour.
Sebastião Ribeiro Salgado Júnior was a Brazilian social documentary photographer and photojournalist.
