At some 700 oil wells and an unspecified number of oil-filled low-lying areas, they ignited vast, raging fires, creating one of the worst environmental disasters in living memory.\u003cbr\u003e\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;\u003cbr\u003eAs the desperate efforts to contain and extinguish the conflagration progressed, Sebastião Salgado traveled to Kuwait to witness the crisis firsthand. The conditions were excruciating. The heat was so vicious that Salgado’s smallest lens warped. A journalist and another photographer were killed when a slick ignited as they crossed it. Sticking close to the firefighters, Salgado braved the intense danger, stench, pollution, and scorching temperatures to capture the ravaged landscape; the air choking on charred sand and soot; the blistered remains of camels; the sand littered with cluster bombs; the flames and smoke soaring to the skies, blocking out the sunlight, dwarfing the oil-soaked firefighters.\u003cbr\u003e\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;\u003cbr\u003eThe epic monochrome pictures first appeared in \u003cem\u003eThe New York Times Magazine\u003c\/em\u003e in June 1991 and were subsequently hailed as one of the photographer’s most captivating—and courageous—bodies of work. Adding to Salgado’s roster of international accolades, the series was awarded the Oskar Barnack Award, recognizing outstanding photography on the relationship between man and the environment.\u003cbr\u003e\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;\u003cbr\u003eThis signed and limited Collector’s Edition \u003cem\u003eKuwait: A Desert on Fire\u003c\/em\u003e is the first monograph of this astonishing collection. In grand-scale, museum-quality reproduction, it presents more than 80 images, interlaid with transparency paper, and printed with cutting-edge High Definition Skia Photography technology. This new era of photographic printing allows, for the first time, all visible elements captured by the camera to transfer to print, achieving a visible range close to the very limits of what the human eye can perceive and a new level of three-dimensionality on the page.\u003cbr\u003e\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;\u003cbr\u003eLike a breathtaking exhibition in print, the result is at once a remarkable encounter with one of Salgado’s landmark series and a major document of global history and awareness. In its pristine quality, scale, and intensity, it serves to remind us, in the photographer’s own words, “that in the brutality of battle another such apocalypse is always just around the corner.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","published_at":"2024-04-17T10:17:10-04:00","created_at":"2024-04-09T12:43:59-04:00","vendor":"Taschen Sumo","type":"","tags":["badge_New Arrival","Filter_Artist_Sebastiao Salgado","Filter_Product Type_Decor","Filter_Product Type_Gift Guide","Filter_Product Type_Gifts for the Serious Collector","Filter_Product Type_New Arrivals","Filter_Product Type_TASCHEN"],"price":125000,"price_min":125000,"price_max":125000,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":45154138783970,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"SALS03","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"Sebastião Salgado.

This new era of photographic printing allows, for the first time, all visible elements captured by the camera to transfer to print, achieving a visible range close to the very limits of what the human eye can perceive and a new level of three-dimensionality on the page.\u003cbr\u003e\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;\u003cbr\u003eLike a breathtaking exhibition in print, the result is at once a remarkable encounter with one of Salgado’s landmark series and a major document of global history and awareness. In its pristine quality, scale, and intensity, it serves to remind us, in the photographer’s own words, “that in the brutality of battle another such apocalypse is always just around the corner.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e"}

Before him opened a vast hole, some 200 meters wide and deep, teeming with tens of thousands of barely-clothed men. Half of them carried sacks weighing up to 40 kilograms up wooden ladders, the others leaping down muddy slopes back into the cavernous maw. Their bodies and faces were the color of ochre, stained by the iron ore in the earth they had excavated.\u003cbr\u003e\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;\u003cbr\u003eAfter gold was discovered in one of its streams in 1979, Serra Pelada evoked the long-promised El Dorado as the world’s largest open-air gold mine, employing some 50,000 diggers in appalling conditions. Today, Brazil’s wildest gold rush is merely the stuff of legend, kept alive by a few happy memories, many pained regrets—and Sebastião Salgado’s photographs.\u003cbr\u003e\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;\u003cbr\u003eColor dominated the glossy pages of magazines when Salgado shot these images. Black and white was a risky path, but the Serra Pelada portfolio would mark a return to the grace of monochrome photography, following a tradition whose masters, from Edward Weston and Brassaï to Robert Capa and Henri Cartier-Bresson, had defined the early and mid-20th century. When Salgado’s images reached \u003cem\u003eThe New York Times Magazine\u003c\/em\u003e, something extraordinary happened: there was complete silence. “In my entire career at \u003cem\u003eThe Times\u003c\/em\u003e,” recalled photo editor Peter Howe, “I never saw editors react to any set of pictures as they did to Serra Pelada.”\u003cbr\u003e\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;\u003cbr\u003eToday, with photography absorbed by the art world and digital manipulation, Salgado’s portfolio holds a biblical quality and projects an immediacy that makes them vividly contemporary. The mine at Serra Pelada has been long closed, yet the intense drama of the gold rush leaps out of these images.\u003cbr\u003e\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;\u003cbr\u003eThis signed and limited Collector’s Edition is the first monograph gathering the astonishing portfolio in full. In grand-scale, museum-quality reproductions, the images are interlaid with transparent paper and printed with cutting-edge High Definition Skia Photography technology. The result is nothing short of breathtaking, like an exhibition in book

Before him opened a vast hole, some 200 meters wide and deep, teeming with tens of thousands of barely-clothed men. Half of them carried sacks weighing up to 40 kilograms up wooden ladders, the others leaping down muddy slopes back into the cavernous maw. Their bodies and faces were the color of ochre, stained by the iron ore in the earth they had excavated.\u003cbr\u003e\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;\u003cbr\u003eAfter gold was discovered in one of its streams in 1979, Serra Pelada evoked the long-promised El Dorado as the world’s largest open-air gold mine, employing some 50,000 diggers in appalling conditions. Today, Brazil’s wildest gold rush is merely the stuff of legend, kept alive by a few happy memories, many pained regrets—and Sebastião Salgado’s photographs.\u003cbr\u003e\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;\u003cbr\u003eColor dominated the glossy pages of magazines when Salgado shot these images. Black and white was a risky path, but the Serra Pelada portfolio would mark a return to the grace of monochrome photography, following a tradition whose masters, from Edward Weston and Brassaï to Robert Capa and Henri Cartier-Bresson, had defined the early and mid-20th century. When Salgado’s images reached \u003cem\u003eThe New York Times Magazine\u003c\/em\u003e, something extraordinary happened: there was complete silence. “In my entire career at \u003cem\u003eThe Times\u003c\/em\u003e,” recalled photo editor Peter Howe, “I never saw editors react to any set of pictures as they did to Serra Pelada.”\u003cbr\u003e\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;\u003cbr\u003eToday, with photography absorbed by the art world and digital manipulation, Salgado’s portfolio holds a biblical quality and projects an immediacy that makes them vividly contemporary. The mine at Serra Pelada has been long closed, yet the intense drama of the gold rush leaps out of these images.\u003cbr\u003e\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;\u003cbr\u003eThis signed and limited Collector’s Edition is the first monograph gathering the astonishing portfolio in full. In grand-scale, museum-quality reproductions, the images are interlaid with transparent paper and printed with cutting-edge High Definition Skia Photography technology. The result is nothing short of breathtaking, like an exhibition in book form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e"}
