	Sebastiao Salgado - biography
		Salgado's respect for his subjects and his determination to draw out the larger meaning of what is happening to them, has created an imagery that testifies to the fundamental dignity of all humanity while simultaneously protesting its violation by war, poverty and other injustices.
		With his wife, Lélia Wanick Salgado, he is presently supporting a reforestation and community revitalization project in the Brazilian state of Minas Gerais.
		Salgado has donated reproduction rights to several of his photographs to support the Global Movement for Children and to illustrate a book by Mozambique's Graça Machel, updating her 1996 report as United Nations Special Representative on the Impact of Armed Conflict on Children.

	The Zeugma: Critical Reviews: Sebastião Salgado
		The issues underlying the problem with Salgado's work go way beyond just this one project by this one photographer; they are the worm in the heart of photojournalism as it is practised today, and it's the vicissitudes of history that hatched the egg of that worm.
		Salgado was born Catholic, in Catholic Latin America, and his appropriation of religious imagery comes as easily as Catholicism's annexation of native saints and rituals throughout its history.
		When Salgado does come close to one of his workers in their ones and their twos, his eye meets theirs and they in turn meet ours, but there is no getting beneath it.

	James Gardner on Sebastiao Salgado on National Review Online (NRO)
		Salgado, whose images have frequently appeared in the New York Times Magazine, is the foremost example of what has come to be known as "concerned photography." Today, more than ever before, the photojournalism with which he is identified has parted company with art photography.
		But Salgado's goal is not merely to record, but also to advocate and enlighten and even, though he might deny it, to dazzle us with his artistic bravura.
		But if Salgado's art is not entirely exempt from patness and histrionics, that does not alter the fact that he is quite probably the best in the world at what he has chosen to do.

	Sebastião Salgado: a Snapshot of the Man behind the Camera
		Sebastião Salgado (1944, Minas Gerais, Brazil) came late to what would be his true vocation; he did not begin to work as a photo reporter until 1973.
		Salgado talks about far-flung cities with a degree of familiarity that most of us could muster when describing our own state, region or province; yet, unlike our own pleasure-driven travel plans, his destinations of choice are where human misery and suffering are at their most acute.
		It is easy to cringe in the presence of Salgado: his photos hold the mirror of conscience up to our eyes, and as if that were not enough, he also wields an alarming amount of macroeconomic data that makes one pall at the many variegated forms that injustice may take.
