Of the portugal to to see so many things to put simply to solve it thats made my life that it reach it if was intercepted will i would like to see it like that. In 2019 the photographic skills museum in stockholm hosted the exhibition gold curated by star gondolas wife lydia. It features the iconic photographs as our god who took in the syrup are not a gold mine in brazil in 1906 over 30 years ago black and white they have a timeless almost biblical quality. Gripped by gold fever more than 50000. 00 young men toiled in the mine 70 metres below ground usually caked in mud. The working and Living Conditions at what was then the Worlds Largest open gold deposit were appalling. The men were suspicious of outsiders but saw gado gain their trust. I spent 5 days and they me if this big i sleep with that i eat what they eat and it became then that means i would therefore they wanted to leave it with this guy in that allowed me to do cedars off because. There was a lot of drinking and violence at the mine. Police were often called to the scene. The policeman was just at the head present that if the state if you are. The walker is holding the kind of off the rifle but the point is smith has a gun in the other hand we have to finger prick heads for shot that it walk here it will not happen. This is a pit but sometimes they fire at something i will take you. Morning 944. 00 the youngest of 8 children and the only son so got a grew up on his parents cattle farm in south brazil in the middle of the rain forest. As a teenager he left and went to school in the city of victoria. There he met then fell in love with lately are. They married and moved to san paulo where they became active in left wing politics opposing the repressive military dictatorship that had come to power in a coup in 1964. Their friends disappeared some were tortured some were murdered. In 1969 the couple fled to paris so god who began working for International Aid projects but then one day they came home with a camera and his life changed. The 1st the boldest see that they do control my life with 1971 the 1st time my wife told that come what i do made the pictures of architecture because why students in architecture in dismal end. I took the 1st picture in my life i dont fool i do find it all fucked up but from this moment to everything that truslow my life and i started to discuss with my wife i had the proposition the goal the washington will get a walk in the world but it that. For most we discuss i would be economies to a become a football to devolve that said the football for weekends and we went back to but as i start my life of football put in. That i had to wait for the day the. Gano began with sports and wedding photos portraits. He had a family to support. His son giuliano who is today a filmmaker was born in 1974. Roderigo was born in 1979. So i got to realize that photography was his vocation while on assignment in africa as an economist he was also then that his enduring fascination with the continent was born. Africa is a continent very close to mine a continent. You see. When you look at the map all phosphoric up and didnt back off if it began much you want to be out that just 150 meter new years ago but just one place africa. Latin america on talk of and plus between. The end of the 17th century the beginning of the 19th. Meanings of offer he goes to brussels in a moment to have an all black population presumed that indian or. White the portuguese of people in brasil and that the influence all father can receive is quite to be that means when they go to walk enough of a home in for me i offer to go is did most sophisticate of the whole continent we have a 4th to defeat into it that we have for us 5 us human the east peace the pope paul sophisticated in sophistication coaches language and aspects of human aspect of racists into us fun is it feasible point to a few weeks after the case of need is filed by law but. In the course of his career is how god always traveled all over africa and completed some 40 proton grippy series there. In the mid 1980 s. He accompanied the Aid OrganizationDoctors Without Borders to the drought stricken so i have a reach but famine and military conflict had turned thousands of people into refugees. He spent over a year in mali ethiopia chad and sudan documenting their suffering and their dignity. The experience ultimately inspired one of side god knows most seminal projects exodus. A searing account of exiles migrants and refugees. The photographer journey the world documented in the desperate forced Mass Movement of people around the globe. Women in afghanistan. Migration to cities in india. And this man from former yugoslavia. As an exile from his own country so i gotto identifies with their plight. What does your biography mean for your photography. Is it important that you come from brazil as if you have experience as a refugee live in far way from home i was an octave east of politics lefties to a young fad octavius to i made the middle grade son i stopped. A student in a court of a social science ed that when they came out the rest of. The day that the become a photographer obese was inside the being obese is my head it and i think of my photography. Is not that them an activist that they must social football that they have. Fought the report is that the gulf this is because i Love Photography because that i photographed what they told that that was important political. Societally human and that what i love what i i. I so for me. My photography its my way of life is much more than that think that the head of my child is my languages and i think theyll go to get old you see a new star that i need to prove for. Time and time again as he travels through places devastated by crisis and war so i gotto comes across children often theyre looking for a new home often theyre looking for their parents always theyre the ones who suffer most theyre the subject of another series children. 1994 was another turning point for saw god. In rwanda he witnessed the aftermath of the genocide it was carnage millions of displaced people bodies heaped by the side of the road the stark evidence of what humans are capable of doing to another made him sick psychologically physically. So i got to return to his parents abandoned farm in the brazilian rain forest to his horror little remained of the lush landscape hed left behind. The trees he remembered were almost completely gone. His wife really in a proposed to be able to land and replant the forest the couple founded the instituto tantra and with the help of experts and local workers they replanted nearly 3000000 trees over the next 15 years. The restored forests include 290 different species while over 170 bird species are returned along with 2 mothers and leopards. To learn and made a miraculous recovery. And so did sound audio. But the rain forest just burning. Almost 500000 hectares were destroyed in august 29th dean many deliberately ignited to clear the forest for farming and cattle ranching. What happens in the most well known is that especially in the west 50 s we destroy a lot of homicide we just lie about the 19th cent of the amazon in leicester 50. Years and. That means the canonical model that you have before brazil for all the world is a proud that part. Off economy is to spread the thought of that to destroy the muslim bucknell after that mr before not having a ball and thats to them a crutch that is not the dick that dictate thought it into but his position. In direction of a months on earth is to destroy the trees to open a space for agriculture to open a space for the production of so you have been a soft meat to offer these things that in reality you dont need more because brazil is enough so are you for all of these. I believe that we must all together in this planet the brazilians and 1st shape brazilians back by all the planet we must create a movement to stop destruction we must sustain it stop the movement to protect dizziness tribes in them and so on it we have. About 169 in 2 people in brazilian im a son in brazilian as one is very important book is about 65 percent of all im a zone it is in brazil all the zenger in the so we have to be protector we have about 183 groups off into them and so on and if they were never contact never they are ours from 2000 years before 5000 years before they are in the danger to their forests to lose their way of life to be destroyed and discovered to be this is really a major disaster. God knows spend several months of the year in brazil. But they have no intention of returning for good. We spent 11 years. Away from brazil because it was not possible go back to. The ship was that it had a lot of friends of what church that brought us us in 8 in brazil and hes staying for us when begin of the apes picked up the ship finish was supposed to go back in does want to have our kids in for us or have one childhood that the has down syndrome and if rice choked to forehead take up the kids in france are so good so well but bad that in brazil not that we take a decision to stay because our son and we love the frappes is a culture that receive us so well we are also french and that after that we started to split our life between brazil and france in or out of that i had proof of the. Best year also gado returned to brazil to recover and to help the nature he grew up with recover. And also to document the vital importance of the Natural Environment ultimately this is what led him to what might be his most ambitious project ever his epic series genesis. The project took so bastone so got over to pristine corners of the world visiting indigenous tribes whose way of life is still traditional. Capturing human communities. Landscapes. And wildlife in his signature. Monochrome imagery. The rear foot of the 1st things you must be of no other person can be a foot of you must have a play for the big players before the grow up to be there to walk with the light walk all the planners with the composition photography is a stat land watch decrease that will run out and you must have a place in the you must. The place to be. So shuffled off when people pee wee people than there are stars but to be true we. Flew an enormous amount of preparation goes into his trips he spends months researching and planning his routes these days he takes an assistant with him. His son giuliano is also accompanied him filming his father at work. Together they visited wrangle island in siberia as arctic ocean course it must use a gun to photograph the walrus breeding ground. Its bitterly cold here the walrus is have to be approached cautiously been there might be polar bears on the prowl. But sun gotto is undeterred by danger. Watching the photographers work its clear how much thought goes into his pictures. The perfection of his compositions doesnt happen by chance. This is a german film director of him vendors conducted extensive interviews with sa gado. And juxtaposed their conversations with julian knows footage and so got those photographs to make the biographical documentary the salt of the earth. Released in 2014 it garnered a number of a war. Ords and helped bring the work of sebastiaan saga over to a wider public. I was especially fascinated by how much he knows about the places he goes to. He immerses himself in his subjects. Hes not a tourist not a visitor to this he doesnt just show up and start taking pictures. He spends weeks and months there and getting to know the people. With this approach he sort of earns his right to tell their stories and. One day in a tense. Wherever he goes or god treats his subjects with utmost respect. Nature people their traditions and culture back here in Papua New Guinea where he photographed indigenous tribes those traditions are endangered. The a. Semester also yarrow has explored the depths of what mankind can do. But he remains an optimist hopeful that the world can change for the better you never lose your abilities you see i do not lose it. I dont lose it also might energy and. No no no to see the human animal. Is a Political Animal we are all polluted. We had old course and with decide that we are the most important for all was soo much easier to fix so he died at the End Community then he is we are whole in that he sees my football the good the and thats. Whats happening thats in my life if was not said the boy a good dose of the same thing again. You take a photo in a fraction of a 2nd sagar has said but you need time to arrive there. Time commitment experience and internet curiosity. Some critics have said that he has status size is suffering but his pictures are too beautiful. So i gotto says he simply chronicles what he sees. Firefighters battling an inferno in kuwaits oil fields. Men blinded by gold fever. Risking their lives. If there were a. Photographer. From sweden from germany from france. I had another view of the planet there was a view looking from here to solve the planet for the 2 but i born in brazil when i showed you pictures like these one. Its not the to provoke a conflict in the course himself no one is on the side of my side that will. In a career that spanned 50 years as a best year also gado has found beauty and barbarity and shown us a world in which much has been lost but where much can still be saved a message to future generations. But he sees what he does as a dying craft who having won. A big new business isnt a stand about football but its what are we out of doing that we see the cell phone is not photography. Is a new language of communication the person made it used to communicate send it why not us and who knows the design is not the bottom fold then take that huge amount off because. Theyre late to down to someone this one they cherish telephoned they lose this bit to photography is another thing photography is the memory. You see when your father or mother make it big draw for you wonder what a babe in a went to the bone of the city to develop if you made the does mo album in to speak to is your life that photograph that the brain to that the beaches tell these stories that is really the memory of a society difficult of things is the needle of the society is a very recent way of communication photography has how many years a little bit more than one and that the in photography most probably would disappear is not the shaman is like you do that that that is sort of. His passion and commitment are unparalleled. For his most recent project he spent years in the amazon working on a series of images sent to be published in 2021. Talking to the boss joe salgado and contemplating his extraordinary images it seems impossible that photography will ever disappear. Is indeed compiling our memory of. The. Cut. Off before.
