Product Description

内容説明

Sebastiao Salgado is one the most respected photojournalists working today, his reputation forged by decades of dedication and powerful black and white images of dispossessed and distressed people taken in places where most wouldn't dare to go. Although he has photographed throughout South America and around the globe, his work most heavily concentrates on Africa, where he has shot more than 40 reportage works over a period of 30 years. From the Dinka tribes in Sudan and the Himba in Namibia to gorillas and volcanoes in the lakes region to displaced peoples throughout the continent, Salgado shows us all facets of African life today. Whether he's documenting refugees or vast landscapes, Salgado knows exactly how to grab the essence of a moment so that when one sees his images one is involuntarily drawn into them. His images artfully teach us the disastrous effects of war, poverty, disease, and hostile climatic conditions. This book brings together Salgado's photos of Africa in three parts. The first concentrates on the southern part of the continent (Mozambique, Malawi, Angola, Zimbabwe, South Africa, Namibia), the second on the Great Lakes region (Congo, Rwanda, Burundi, Uganda, Tanzania, Kenya), and the third on the Sub-Saharan region (Burkina Faso, Mali, Sudan, Somalia, Chad, Mauritania, Senegal, Ethiopia). Texts are provided by renowned Mozambique novelist Mia Couto, who describes how today's Africa reflects the effects of colonization as well as the consequences of economic, social, and environmental crises. This stunning book is not only a sweeping document of Africa but an homage to the continent's history, people, and natural phenomena.

5.0 out of 5 stars 言語では表現できない圧倒的な世界観, 2008/12/5
By ina (肥後→江戸) - See all my reviews
Sebastiao Salgadoが写す世界はすごい。どんな状況でも逞しく生きる人間の尊厳を描く。そこには人間の強靭さやしなやかさが詰まっている。言語では表現できない圧倒的な世界観。WORKERS→EXODUS→GENESISと、サルガドの一連の世界観が全て詰まっているこの本は購入の価値あり。損はしないと思う。何度も読み返してしまう。

5.0 out of 5 stars 圧巻。, 2007/12/5
久しぶりの本格的な写真集です。アフリカについて撮ってきた作品を集めたものなので、既発表作品、『WORKERS』や『EXODUS』ものも多いです。が、しかし。大判で迫ってくる写真の力はすごい。特に2000年代に入ってのGENESIS作品については言葉がでないです。美しい、圧巻のプリント。正直、『WORKERS』がサルガドの最高傑作で、あれ以上の感動を得ようというのは贅沢かなと長年思っていたのですが、いやはや。
