Abstract
As the interviewer John Bloom states in his introduction:
""Salgado is able to articulate in visual terms the crises and
ironies of modern culture, also links his audience with the
archetypal realm of the human condition''. Topics discussed: the
position of photojournalism; the relationship between politics
and art/aesthetics; Salgado's distrust of Cartier-Bresson's
Decisive Moment; the integration of the photographer with the
subject of his photographs; the spiritual aspect in his
photography. The interview is accompanied by an extensive
portfolio, including his series on the Serra Pelada, Brazilian
gold mine, starvation portraits in the Sahel, and some of his
series ""The Archeology of Industrialism''.
