Sebastiao Salgado. Genesis 塞巴斯蒂昂·薩爾加多 創世紀
攝影藝術畫冊 大開本520頁精裝
印刷非常棒,曆時8年完成的力作,畫冊製作精美,黑白對比強烈,層次感稍欠,這可能是大師想要達到的效果吧。書中收錄瞭很多風景照 。薩爾加多為瞭呈現精細畫質,拍攝此專題初期一度使用pentax 645中福相機。後期轉為某品牌機身。若不是有網友爆料,我確實沒有留意到畫冊裏與膠片穿插搭配齣的畫質差彆。在宏偉的主題之下,不同介質的差彆已經被抹平瞭。作為策劃選題相當齣色地攝影師,作者的新書裏仍保持著《workers》或《Africa 》裏的一貫水準:構圖講究、優美、象徵性明顯。 但也有網友指齣,要小心薩爾加多的照片,會有落入“黑白沙龍”的危險----- 即使他拍攝的是危險領域、人文關懷。 不過,無論爭議如何,這本《創世紀》(或者譯為《起源》)的畫冊想要讓我們看到的,確實是人類珍貴的遺産。它們彌足珍貴,我們該十分珍惜。
Earth eternal A photographic homage to our planet in its natural state “In GENESIS, my camera allowed nature to speak to me. And it was my privilege to listen.” —Sebasti?o Salgado On a very fortuitous day in 1970, 26-year-old Sebasti?o 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—travelled 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. Mastering the monochrome with an extreme deftness to rival the virtuoso Ansel Adams, Salgado brings black-and-white photography to a new dimension; the tonal variations in his works, the contrasts of light and dark, recall the works of Old Masters such as Rembrandt and Georges de La Tour. What does one discover in GENESIS? The animal species and volcanoes of the Galápagos; penguins, sea lions, cormorants, and whales of the Antarctic and South Atlantic; Brazilian alligators and jaguars; African lions, leopards, and elephants; the isolated Zo’é tribe deep in the 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 Juruá rivers in the; 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 likens GENESIS to “my love letter to the planet.” Whereas the limited Collector’s Edition is conceived like a large-format portfolio that meanders across the planet, this unlimited book presents a selection of photographs arranged in five chapters geographically: Planet South, Sanctuaries, Africa, Northern Spaces,ia and Pantanal. Each in its own way, this book and the Collector’s edition—both edited and designed by Lélia Wanick Salgado—pay homage to Salgado’s triumphant and unparalleled GENESIS project.
