Sebastião Salgado makes makes a proud Brazilian. His work is amazing, so inspiring and able to provoke a discussion about so many aspects of human condition.
Tatiana you always do a wonderful job in your videos. I feel watching your videos that I am in a University 101 class on photography. But this one you stepped into a next level. This was a grad school analysis, allowing us to see but also understand what we see in the photos from our own perspective, our own place in our lives. As far as Salgado, he will be one of the of the few photographers who in the future will be in a list of other masters of the visual arts, alongside Renoir, the Group of seven, Picasso, etc. As an Indigenous man, I see his work as giving voice to displaced peoples and Indigenous peoples. He has given voice to the land, the water, the air.
1st time I heard of this photographer. I would describe those type of photos as not merly about life but on life itself, not just recording a scene but the essence of our lifetime. Even if it is only part of lives
As a brazilian and lifelong fan of Sebastião Salgado work, as I grew up listening to my father telling stories about his work, and now a truly collector of his work, as I have almost all of his books, except for the Workers, I can say I was delighted when I saw that this video was about him. I only wish that you had mention his TED Talk - The Silent Drama of Photography - because he tells his history, and why he started the Genesis project. I think that gives a more deeper meaning for his work, because Genesis saved his life. I had the oportunity to see the Genesis exposition in 2015, when it was held in Museu Oscar Niemeyer (MON), in Curitiba, and seeing his photos in large scale was amazing. In 2022 I saw the Amazonia exposition in SESC Pompeia in São Paulo, and believe me, if you think seeing the book is amazing, I guarantee that the exposition is on another level, as Lelia Salgado worked to create a immersion in the forest. As a Sebastião Salgado fan, I can only say thank you for this video, it was truly delightful listening to you talking about him. Love your channel, keep the great work!
Salgado is truly one of the very greatest photographers of all time. In addition he is an incredible person, directing the lenses of his camera towards humans we otherwise never would have noticed. Not to mention his engagement for nature.
I agree, he has definitely opened our eyes to the pain and incredibly difficult situations of others that without his images we would know nothing about or at least wouldn’t really see the depth and the sheer amount of pain caused.
He is an amazing photographer, but personally I think it is best to find inspiration in homework and then try to apply it to one's own photography. Great job Tatiana.
I missed you! Welcome back! I know these productions take time. Glad you're back. It's like Christmas for ME! Five minutes in, what a composition. SO much going on. I wondered if it were a "wake" for someone who died, and paying respects. Such great stuff, Tatiana. Thanks for this post. You really rock these.
Thank you Chris! I’ll touch on my disappearance at the end of the next video nothing serious - I just moved ah the joys of being an adult. Thanks so much for watching the video. I appreciate your feedback as alway. Five minutes into the video is that the image I discuss in detail taken in Ecuador in 1982?
@TatianaHopper yes! That one. Sorry. I was lazy. I could've done a time stamp. Moving is Satan. To me. Having moved is okay. I think I love change. I don't. :)
Same I love the change, just paperwork and organising it all can be a pain ahahah so that one photo I’m not sure, I think it can be a wake yes, the book doesn’t provide an accurate description of the photo besides location and date but there’s definitely a religious aspect to it. Thank you again for watching Chris!
I purchased "Genesis" over the summer. It is magnificent! I am rethinking my outlook and composition regarding my black and white photography. Great video...
Epic is what comes to mind when viewing Salgado's work. I clearly remember seeing his images in the Museum of the Ara Pacis in Rome- that was a truly epic and awe-inspiring experience. Thanks for the insightful video Tatiana!
Man, I love this channel so much. Salgado is my favorite photographer of all time. His work just speaks to me and what I wish i could accomplish. Do you have "book" recommendations in the same vein as your channel? I've found it hard to find books on the subject of photography and philosophy together. Thanks for the vids!
Wonderful video! Salgado is an incredible photographer, thank you very much for sharing this Tatiana. I recommend watching the documentary The Salt Of The Earth, where he talks about his books and life projects.
Thanx for another great video I've had his book Genies for some time now, enjoy it much. Every time I watch 1 of your videos, I get a glass of water without thinking, I associate you with staying hydrated. lol
Salgado's images have a sense of, for lack of a better term, "Temporal Limbo" to coin a phrase. There's a sense of the space between something having just happened and something about to happen. It replaces physical motion with temporal motion, if that makes any sense.
I had Sebastião Salgado's book "An Uncertain Grace" checked out from the library recently. The photographs of the famine in Africa were hard to look at. I can't even imagine what it must have been like to photograph famine.
I believe that Scott, I actually have been wanting to get this book titled “Sahel: The End Of The Road” which is precisely about that work you described, the images that I have seen are incredibly painful and haunting. Ask me and everyone should see them, it most definitely puts a lot into perspective! Thank you for watching.
The photo in Ecuador that you struggle to explain is a priest taking the confession of the locals in a very poor parish. This might help you understand what is going on and the multitude of symbols that he perceives
Among the other titles, I see that you have An Alternative History of Photography and Another Kind of Life on the shelf. Did you find them good reads? Have you done a YT on recommended books? I've found certain ones to be most enlightening, although in retrospect, I'm not sure how they've affected my work. I assume to a similar degree that simply reviewing monographs, shows, and just exposing myself to the work of other artists and artforms has. It all adds up and in some way alters the way we see and interpret things.
Another terrific documentary about photographer Sebastião Salgado. Like such photographers as W. Eugene Smith, Robert Capa and Robert Frank, Salgado captured the who, the where and the why of the image. Sebastião Salgado may not have started out as an environmental activist, his photos of the Serra Pelada gold miners, damaged the countryside looking for their 'El Dorado'. The reason why Sebastião Salgado is revered and Richard Prince is abhorred, Salgado cared about the world he wanted to captured. Richard Prince, perhaps not.
One of the great and true giant of photography although I might say that his recent works has been dwelling too much into "sensational" effects. It is probably linked to his turning into digital photography and the apparent freedom it gives but when I compare the magnificent scale of deepness of his goldmine work to his recent heavily photoshopped work on genesis, I have the impression (from a pure artistic standpoint) that he has lost a lot. Same thing could be say of Steve McCurry who now feels that his kodachrome colors are not as vibrant as he would like and that keeps publishing new books with pumped up vibrant tones.
oh boy, where to being? OK so Salgado is obviously a very caring and empathetic human being, he is also one of the great masters of photographic form. But there are real problems with his work. Let me just point to three of them. 1- representations of indigenous people: look at the images, I think many times Salgado falls into the western colonialist trap (despite being from South America) his images reinforce stereotypes of indigenous people as uneducated-intutive-simple-closer-to-nature and keeps them as an "other" to a colonial self (yes, even when he might be showing the impact of colonial power). 2- Aesthetics of suffering- this has been said a lot about Salgado but he sure makes death, famine, sorrow, despair, etc stunningly beautiful and he made a career of selling the beauty of suffering to western audiences. Shouldn't this be examined? I've never seen anyone interested in photography really dig deep into this aspect of his work. At best the defense of Saldago is similar to that of war photographers. "We need them", it says, "we need to see what they show us, so critique isn't meaningful." Well, I beg to differ. 3- The philosopher Daniel Rubinstein called Salgado "the Mel Gibson of photography" (a reference to the power of spectacle in Salgado's work, and not intended as a complement). In the same lecture Rubinstein pointed out that poverty and suffering have launched many photography careers. Asserting that Salgado's work reinforces the implicit power of representation over us. I think Salgado is the most problematic photographer there has ever been and it's worth looking at his work critically for exactly this reason. People who love photographic formalism will always adore his work, but he doesn't give us the true meaning of photography, no, not at all, what he shows us is photography's most confounding and seductive trap.

Have you thought about Trent Parke? Cheers
still would love to see hear your take on Lee Friedlanders work. Or and Henry Wessel. Thanks in advance.
I second the suggestion of an analysis of Trent Parke!
Sebastião Salgado makes makes a proud Brazilian. His work is amazing, so inspiring and able to provoke a discussion about so many aspects of human condition.
Absolutely, could not agree more and I for one and I great admirer of his work. More incoming photobook purchases on my end!

I love Salgado’s work so much. Such a profound photographer.
Agreed completely, thanks for watching!
Bravo Tatiana! Another excellent video! Our planet needs more people like you and Salgado!
Thank you so much! I appreciate the comment, definitely more people with the impact of Salgado :)

Another masterpiece about a master of photography. Sebastião's work is truly inspiring.
Agreed, thanks so much for watching!
@ my pleasure! And always looking forward to your next episode 🔥
🤝🏻
He is an amazing photographer, but personally I think it is best to find inspiration in homework and then try to apply it to one's own photography. Great job Tatiana.
Thank you for watching, I appreciate your thoughts.
Just yesterday night I watched "The salt of the Earth"... Great job!
I guess it was great timing for this video then!
Another quality video, a rare occurrence on RUclips. Please keep up the good work.
Thank you Bill!
I first learned of Salgado back in 1996. I was just in total Awe and his book Genesis is maybe my most favorite.
Thanks for watching Terry, glad you enjoy Salgado's work.
@ You always make the best RUclips videos. Actually about photographers and photography. Not pushing this or that gear. Thank you
Absolutely amazing photography… thanks Tatiana
Thank you so much for tuning in and commenting 🤝🏻

Thank you for watching and commenting Sebastian, much appreciated as always!
Nice to see you uploading again Hopper, these videos are always so thoughtful. Thanks for your efforts

What Ansel did with landscape, Salgado did with humanity.
Salgado is on another level compared to us mere mortals.
Really enjoyed this video, thank you!
Thank you so much Sophie!

Wonderful video! Salgado is an incredible photographer, thank you very much for sharing this Tatiana. I recommend watching the documentary The Salt Of The Earth, where he talks about his books and life projects.
Thank you for watching, yes I double down on that recommendation, loved that documentary!
Great video. I think I just discovered I'm a big fan of Salgado!
Thank you for watching!
I saw his exhibition Amazônia this year in Milan. Breathtakingly beautiful.
I’m jealous (in a good way) hope to see one of his exhibitions too at some stage!
Thanx for another great video I've had his book Genies for some time now, enjoy it much. Every time I watch 1 of your videos, I get a glass of water without thinking, I associate you with staying hydrated. lol
Well that’s a good thing I suppose ahah thanks for watching!

Welcome aboard! Hope you enjoy the videos and thanks for tuning in.
Nice segue into MPB. Smooth! ;-)
Thank you :)
The photo in Ecuador that you struggle to explain is a priest taking the confession of the locals in a very poor parish. This might help you understand what is going on and the multitude of symbols that he perceives
Spot on ... just proves it helps if you have context.
and it has light leaks at 4:33...
You only see what you know. The lack of religious symbols makes it less obvious.
I’ve found my Ansel Adams of documentary photography. Thanks
Great! Thanks for watching!

I love those miner photos, there’s a beautiful book titled Gold that groups all those images. Thanks for your comment and for watching of course!
