Genesis of Sebastião Salgado

2009-06-17T12:09:00.000-07:00

Beautiful introduction of Sebastião Salgado (biography) in The Guardian (full text) to his newest, ongoing project called "Genesis".

- "it is possible to turn back the clock and recover what seemed lost forever" -

Some photos from "Genesis" project are here

"Sebastiao Salgado is synonymous of black and white photography. All his work, each of his projects, are images where the density of blacks shape the light so to become even more important than the light itself. But choosing to describe the legacy of the untouched landscapes, the primitive cultures, without color is to represent the world without the decor that we all perceive and value. It is then, that one realizes that rather than being a collection of beautiful images alone, Genesis is a message. It is the message that is best described with photography that goes to the core and makes you think, and makes you appreciate, and makes you understand. Color changes with the temperature of the light, and disappears in the night. But the form and the message are immutable, and so, Sebastiao Salgado’s black and white photography of untouched places and cultures, becomes a message from the past to the future, a message to appreciate and protect what is left and what we should not perturb.".

Miroslav Tichy

After studying at the Academy of Arts in Prague, Miroslav Tichý (born 1926) withdrew to a life in isolation in his hometown of Kyjov, Moravia, Czech Republic In the late 1950s he quit painting and became a distinctive Diogenes-like figure. From the end of the 1960s he began to take photographs mainly of local women, in part with cameras he made by hand. He later mounted them on hand-made frames, added finishing touches in pencil, and thus moved them from photography in the direction of drawing. The result is works of strikingly unusual formal qualities, which disregard the rules of conventional photography. They constitute a large oeuvre of poetic, dreamlike views of feminine beauty in a small town under the Czechoslovak Communist régime.
