Magnum Opus is the largest curated photographic solo exhibition that Sotheby’s has ever mounted, bringing together work from 40 years of Salgado’s career. It is a chance to see many of Salgado’s greatest hits, among them a striking shot of a mud-covered worker bent over in exhaustion while hauling a heavy load up out of the Serra Pelada goldmine; two members of the Mixe Indigenous community in the Mexican state of Oaxaca, arms outstretched while gazing out into the clouds as though they are about to fly off; and refugees from the 1983-85 Ethiopian famine huddled around a massive tree trunk while godlike rays of sunlight penetrate down diagonally around them. Disabled individuals – Over 65 – Teachers – Employees of the Municipality of Milan (with name badge) – Journalists with press card of the current year not accredited – Groups (minimum 7/maximum 20 people) In the final section of the exhibition visitors will also discover how the Salgados are working to protect the “other Brazilian rainforest”, the Mata Atlantica (Atlantic Forest) through the work of Instituto Terra.

Although the tribes do some farming, they largely rely on hunting, fishing and gathering fruit, just like their hunter-gatherer forebears. Some of Salgado’s most startling shots show proud hunters carrying dead monkeys home to eat. Yet, he points out, they live in rhythm with nature. When a village gets too big for its ecosystem, it voluntarily splits and part of the community moves to fresh forest. Salgado admires, even envies, the balance their lifestyle allows. “There’s fish in the rivers, animals in the forest, fruit in the trees. They live so well. They have so much time to discuss, to sing, to have parties.” Esposte oltre 200 fotografie, che ritraggono la vegetazione, i fiumi, le montagne e le persone che popolano l’Amazzonia brasiliana: un’immersione nella foresta, accompagnata dalla traccia audio composta appositamente per la mostra dal musicista francese Jean-Michel Jarre. Mountains– Brazil also boasts mountain ranges, which feature peaks shrouded in mist and rainforest-covered lower slopes.Aerial Views – the exhibition provides visitors with a look at sweeping aerial shots of immense waterfalls and stormy skies. Of the many reasons one should spend some time visiting Magnum Opus, perhaps the most pertinent is that these photographs inspire feelings that we do not get enough of. Looking at Salgado’s work, one feels a sense of connection with the people and animals inhabiting the world around us, as well as thankfulness for the splendor that exists all over the Earth. In the book’s foreword Salgado writes: “For me, it is the last frontier, a mysterious universe of its own, where the immense power of nature can be felt as nowhere else on earth. Here is a forest stretching to infinity that contains one-tenth of all living plant and animal species, the world’s largest single natural laboratory.” You can also find the Science Museum’s What’s On guide with details of galleries, exhibitions and events at the museum here .

About Natura &Co: La mostra, in anteprima in Italia, con più di 200 opere ci immerge nell’universo della foresta mettendo insieme le impressionanti fotografie di Salgado con i suoni concreti della foresta. Il fruscio degli alberi, le grida degli animali, il canto degli uccelli o il fragore delle acque che scendono dalla cima delle montagne, raccolti in loco, compongono un paesaggio sonoro, creato da Jean-Michel Jarre.

Si tratta di una delle formazioni metereologiche più pericolose: può estendersi per diverse migliaia di metri in altezza, espellendo pezzi di ghiaccio e con venti che arrivano fino a 200 km/h, il tutto accompagnato da fulmini e forti rovesci. La loro forza è tale che anche i grandi aeroplani fanno il possibile per evitarli, gli elicotteri si lanciano all’immediata ricerca di una radura nella giungla in cui atterrare e le imbarcazioni si affrettano a trovare riparo dalla pioggia accecante. In rare occasioni, la più recente delle quali nel 2005, la tempesta può essere così devastante da abbattere centinaia di migliaia di alberi. ríos por buscadores de oro independientes y la invasión implacable de bosques vírgenes por madereros extrayendo
