Sebastio Salgado: Other Americas

Spectacular Book!!

Unas fotos muy hermosas!!!

One of the all time great monographs.

I was really excited to finally get this book, but almost all the pictures are printed across both pages and the middle of the picture is completely ruined. There are a few pictures that are printed on one page only and you can see how much of a masterpiece these photos are. Its truly a shame to have such a great work of art ruined by a bad publisher.

Inspiring work - another masterpiece.

I'm a big fan of Salgado but the problem with this book is that almost every photograph is printed across the binding. This makes it impossible to see the photograph in it's entirety. Not a good way to see a photograph.

Another masterpiece from Slalgado.Salgado's photos captures the vital point. Desperate lives of south american indians.

Beautiful work of a genius.

As Salgado's first published collection this is historically important and Wim Wenders film 'The Salt of the Earth' inspired me to buy the couple of books I needed to complete my collection of all Salgado's books. This is a 2014 reprint of a book first published in 1986. It is relatively slim (around 50 images) compared to his later books (and relatively expensive too) but the book is full of amazing images - both in subject matter and photographic composition and technique. Salgado is a master of light, story-telling and emotion and his images are haunting.Like another reviewer, I'm also not keen on photographs being printed over a double page but ' it is what it is' and I simply get over that to enjoy the photography. If someone was to own just one or two of Salgado's books, there are others that would probably be more suitable, but I'm delighted to have this as part of my photographic library.

The book was damaged in transit and returned. The quality of the photo prints looked very poor judging from the cover photo. Very disappointing all round.

If you love photography, you will love this book.Very good value.

All fine

Pas le meilleur de Salgado, mais probablement son plus différent.
