“在《创世纪》中，我的相机让自然与我对话。聆听自然之声是我的荣幸。”——塞巴斯蒂昂·萨尔加多。

1970年一个非常偶然的日子，26岁的塞巴斯蒂昂·萨尔加多第一次拿起相机。当他透过取景器观察时，他顿悟了：生命突然变得有意义。从那天起——尽管他花了数年时间才积累足够的经验，最终以摄影师的身份谋生——相机就成了他与世界交流的工具。萨尔加多“始终偏爱黑白照片的明暗对比”，在他职业生涯早期很少拍摄彩色照片，之后便彻底放弃了彩色摄影。

萨尔加多在巴西的一个农场长大，他对自然怀有深深的热爱和敬畏；他也对人类如何受到往往是毁灭性的社会经济状况的影响尤为敏感。在萨尔加多备受赞誉的艺术生涯中，他创作了无数作品，其中三个长期项目尤为突出：《工人》（1993），记录了世界各地体力劳动者正在消失的生活方式；《迁徙》（2000），致敬由饥饿、自然灾害、环境恶化和人口压力引发的大规模yi民；以及这部新作《创世纪》，它是历时八年史诗般探险的成果，旨在重新发现那些至今仍未受现代社会影响的山脉、沙漠和海洋，以及那里的动植物和居民——一个依然原始纯净的星球。“地球上约有46%的区域仍然保持着创世之初的模样，”萨尔加多提醒我们，“我们必须保护现存的一切。”《创世纪》项目以及萨尔加多夫妇的地球研究所（Instituto Terra）致力于展现我们星球的美丽，修复地球遭受的破坏，并为子孙后代保护地球。

萨尔加多进行了超过30次旅行——徒步、乘坐轻型飞机、远洋船只、独木舟，甚至热气球，穿越极端的酷暑严寒，有时甚至身处险境——创作了一系列照片，向我们展现了令人叹为观止的自然、动物和原住民之美。在《创世纪》中，我们能发现什么？加拉帕戈斯群岛的动物物种和火山；南极和南大西洋的企鹅、海狮、鸬鹚和鲸鱼；巴西的短吻鳄和美洲虎；非洲的狮子、豹子和大象；亚马逊丛林深处与世隔绝的佐埃部落；西巴布亚的石器时代科罗瓦伊人；苏丹的游牧丁卡族牧民；北极圈内的涅涅茨族游牧民及其驯鹿群；苏门答腊岛以西岛屿上的明打威丛林社区；南极的冰山；中非和堪察加半岛的火山；撒哈拉沙漠；亚马逊河的内格罗河和茹鲁阿河；大峡谷的深谷；阿拉斯加的冰川……以及更远的地方。萨尔加多倾注了大量的时间、精力和热情来创作这部作品，他称《创世纪》为“我写给地球的情书”。

“In GENESIS, my camera allowed nature to speak to me. And it was my privilege to listen.” —Sebastião Salgado

On a very fortuitous day in 1970, 26-year-old Sebastião Salgado held a camera for the first time. When he looked through the viewfinder, he experienced a revelation: suddenly life made sense. From that day onward—though it took years of hard work before he had the experience to earn his living as a photographer—the camera became his tool for interacting with the world. Salgado, who “always preferred the chiaroscuro palette of black-and-white images,” shot very little color in his early career before giving it up completely.

Raised on a farm in Brazil, Salgado possessed a deep love and respect for nature; he was also particularly sensitive to the ways in which human beings are affected by their often devastating socio-economic conditions. Of the myriad works Salgado has produced in his acclaimed career, three long-term projects stand out: Workers (1993), documenting the vanishing way of life of manual laborers across the world; Migrations (2000), a tribute to mass migration driven by hunger, natural disasters, environmental degradation and demographic pressure; and this new opus, GENESIS, the result of an epic eight-year expedition to rediscover the mountains, deserts and oceans, the animals and peoples that have so far escaped the imprint of modern society—the land and life of a still-pristine planet. “Some 46% of the planet is still as it was in the time of genesis,” Salgado reminds us. “We must preserve what exists.” The GENESIS project, along with the Salgados’ Instituto Terra, are dedicated to showing the beauty of our planet, reversing the damage done to it, and preserving it for the future.

Over 30 trips—traveled by foot, light aircraft, seagoing vessels, canoes, and even balloons, through extreme heat and cold and in sometimes dangerous conditions—Salgado created a collection of images showing us nature, animals, and indigenous peoples in breathtaking beauty. What does one discover in GENESIS? The animal species and volcanoes of the Galápagos; penguins, sea lions, cormorants, and whales of the Antarctic and South Atlantic; Brazilian alligators and jaguars; African lions, leopards, and elephants; the isolated Zo’é tribe deep in the Amazon jungle; the Stone Age Korowai people of West Papua; nomadic Dinka cattle farmers in Sudan; Nenet nomads and their reindeer herds in the Arctic Circle; Mentawai jungle communities on islands west of Sumatra; the icebergs of the Antarctic; the volcanoes of Central Africa and the Kamchatka Peninsula; Saharan deserts; the Negro and Juruá rivers in the Amazon; the ravines of the Grand Canyon; the glaciers of Alaska... and beyond. Having dedicated so much time, energy, and passion to the making of this work, Salgado calls GENESIS “my love letter to the planet.”
