Salgado was born on February 8, 1944 in [[Aimorés]], in the state of [[Minas Gerais]], Brazil. After a somewhat itinerant childhood, Salgado trained as an [[economist]], earning a [[BA degree]] from [[UFES]], a [[master's degree]] from the [[University of São Paulo]] in Brazil, and a PhD from [[University of Paris]].<ref name="International Center of Photography 2019">{{cite web | title=Sebastião Salgado | website=International Center of Photography | date=2019-02-02 | url=https://www.icp.org/browse/archive/constituents/sebasti%C3%A3o-salgado | access-date=2021-06 |

He began work as an economist for the [[International Coffee Organization]], often traveling to Africa on missions for the [[World Bank]]. |
|||
⚫ | Salgado works on long term, self-assigned projects, many of which have been published as books: ''The Other Americas'', ''Sahel'', ''Workers'', ''Migrations'', and ''Genesis''. The latter three are mammoth collections with hundreds of images each from all around the world. His most famous pictures are of a [[gold mine]] in Brazil called [[Serra Pelada]].<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://theartofphotography.tv/photographers/salgado/|title=Sebastião Salgado {{!}} The Art of Photography|date=2015-05-14|work=The Art of Photography|access-date=2017-10-01 |

==Photography== |
|||
⚫ | |||
It was on his travels to Africa that he first started seriously taking photographs. He chose to abandon a career as an economist and switched to photography in 1973, working initially on news assignments before veering more towards documentary-type work. Salgado initially worked with the photo agency [[Sygma (agency)|Sygma]] and the Paris-based [[Gamma (agency)|Gamma]], but in 1979, he joined the international cooperative of photographers [[Magnum Photos]]. He left Magnum in 1994 and with his wife [[Lélia Wanick Salgado]] formed his own agency, Amazonas Images, in Paris, to represent his work. He is particularly noted for his social documentary photography of workers in less developed nations.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2004/sep/11/sebastiaosalgado.photography2|title=Biography: Sebastião Salgado|date=2004-09-11|work=The Guardian|access-date=2017-10-01|issn=0261-3077}}</ref> His work resides in Paris.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.unicef.org/salgado/bio.htm|title=Sebastiao Salgado - biography|website=www.unicef.org|access-date=2017-10-01}}</ref> |

Sebastião Ribeiro Salgado Júnior (born February 8, 1944)[2] is a Brazilian social documentary photographer and photojournalist.
He has traveled in over 120 countries for his photographic projects. Most of these have appeared in numerous press publications and books. Touring exhibitions of his work have been presented throughout the world.
Salgado is a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador. He was awarded the W. Eugene Smith Memorial Fund Grant in 1982,[3] Foreign Honorary Membership of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1992[4] and the Royal Photographic Society's Centenary Medal and Honorary Fellowship (HonFRPS) in 1993.[5] He has been a member of the Académie des Beaux-Arts at the Institut de France since April 2016.[6][7]
Early life and education
[edit]Salgado was born on February 8, 1944,[2] in Aimorés, in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. After a somewhat itinerant childhood, Salgado trained as an economist, earning a BA degree from UFES, a master's degree from the University of São Paulo in Brazil, and a PhD from University of Paris.[8]
He began work as an economist for the International Coffee Organization, often traveling to Africa on missions for the World Bank.
Photography
[edit]It was on his travels to Africa that he first started seriously taking photographs. He chose to abandon a career as an economist and switched to photography in 1973, working initially on news assignments before veering more towards documentary-type work. Salgado initially worked with the photo agency Sygma and the Paris-based Gamma, but in 1979, he joined the international cooperative of photographers Magnum Photos. He left Magnum in 1994 and with his wife Lélia Wanick Salgado formed his own agency, Amazonas Images, in Paris, to represent his work. He is particularly noted for his social documentary photography of workers in less developed nations.[9] His work resides in Paris.[10]
Salgado works on long term, self-assigned projects, many of which have been published as books: The Other Americas, Sahel, Workers, Migrations, and Genesis. The latter three are mammoth collections with hundreds of images each from all around the world. His most famous pictures are of a gold mine in Brazil called Serra Pelada, taken between 1986 and 1989.[11] He has also been a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador since 2001.[12]
Between 2004 and 2011, Salgado worked on Genesis, aiming at the presentation of the unblemished faces of nature and humanity. It consists of a series of photographs of landscapes and wildlife, as well as of human communities that continue to live in accordance with their ancestral traditions and cultures. This body of work is conceived as a potential path to humanity's rediscovery of itself in nature.[13]
In September and October 2007, Salgado displayed his photographs of coffee workers from India, Guatemala, Ethiopia and Brazil at the Brazilian Embassy in London. The aim of the project was to raise public awareness of the origins of the popular drink.[14]
Salgado has photographed the landscape and people of the Amazon rainforest (Amazónia) in Brazil.[15][16]
Salgado's work has been described by Andrei Netto of The Guardian as an "instantly recognisable combination of black-and-white composition and dramatic lighting".[2]
Salgado and his work are the focus of the film The Salt of the Earth (2014), directed by Wim Wenders and Salgado's son, Juliano Ribeiro Salgado, and produced by Lélia Wanick Salgado.[17]
Environmentalism
[edit]Together, Lélia and Sebastião have worked since the 1990s on the restoration of a part of the Atlantic Forest in Brazil. In 1998, they succeeded in turning 17,000 acres into a nature reserve and created the Instituto Terra. The institute is dedicated to a mission of reforestation, conservation and environmental education.[18][19]
