"Sebastião Salgado: Aesthetic Portraits of Human Suffering at 80"
Celebrated photographer Sebastião Salgado, who turns 80 this week, reflects on his extensive career covering wars, humanitarian crises, and pristine locations. Despite health challenges from his work, he is now focused on editing his vast archive, preparing for upcoming exhibitions, and continuing his environmental activism through projects like the Instituto Terra. Salgado's career has been marked by criticism, but he remains dedicated to capturing the beauty and dignity of the world, while expressing pessimism about humanity's evolution and optimism about the planet's ability to recover.
