Sebastian Salgado: Genesis
January 24 to March 15, 2025
Opening Thursday January 23
“”Genesis” , a masterpiece by Sebastião Salgado created between 2004 and 2012, is to date the most viewed exhibition in the world, beating the record of “Family of Man” by Edward Steichen. The hundreds of images that compose it question our relationship with the earth, its resources and awaken our consciences.
To celebrate this extraordinary series, Sebastião Salgado created a portfolio in 2014 containing 50 images printed in platinum-palladium. Invented in 1873 by the Englishman William Willis, this unique process, beyond its visual qualities, offers the print an unequalled stability. This portfolio is presented for the first time in its entirety.”
