A Gallery for Fine Photography

241 Chartres Street
New Orleans



Sebasti?o Salgado?s photographs serve as a record of the deepest levels of
the human
condition on our planet. After nearly 30 years of photographing Workers,
Migrations, and
Africa, Salgado has turned his eye to the Earth?s beauty in a series he has
titled, ?Genesis.?
A Gallery for Fine Photography is proud to exhibit photographs spanning
Sebasti?o Salgado?s career (1975-2010).

Sebasti?o Salgado was born in Brazil in 1944.
His education and early employment began in economics.
In 1971, while working in London as an economist, he travelled to Africa
where he took his
first photographs. He and his wife moved to Paris in 1973 to begin his life
as a photographer.
