Water, fire, earth, light. These four elements combined in God's plans to create the world can offer a variety of variables, but in the eyes of Sebastião Salgado multiply to infinity, and even out of the norm because, although the creator made clear , for example , Gators must creep along the surface to dive into the water , the Brazilian photographer may suggest, thanks to the gifted vision that draws its objectives, these creatures also fly . Whoever approaches the CaixaForum Madrid can see with their own eyes to contemplate the 245 images Génesissegún Salgado , a job that led the Brazilian photographer eight years traveling the globe in search , no more nor less than Paradise .

What for? To emulate the eye of God but to be faithful to Darwin, to testify to the origins of life intact , to certify that runs the water, the light is that magical spring that penetrates like a paintbrush and mutates the endless suggestions and White black Salgado shows us the world. To experience close to the ground and roads that tell what the sacred texts but also follow the trail of the evolution of species , to verify that the penguins are manifested , to compare the trace scaly iguana and monumental carapace Galapagos tortoises , to explain that the Indians have in tattooed skin map of communion with rivers and forests , and elephants and icebergs ice emulate strengths and skin , and that geology designs and monuments natural sanctuaries are still those who cling .
Salgado ( Aimorés , 1944) did not suspect that his age would be in such good shape. But when he decided to get back in this adventure that has absorbed him to the core, the photographer found himself crossing peaks of 4,200 meters, wandering between rows of water penetrating the forest and at the expense of nudity desert to capture what has captured . "It's also a return to my roots , to my childhood in Brazil , while conducting long walking beside my father , transporting livestock, and the distances were related ," he says.

This is how he thinks he learned to look . Slowly . And be patient , as he confesses in my land From Earth , now also published his memoirs by Factory . They described apart from the milestones of his career, how someone smiled life, senior economist , he became a photographer early in his career did not have the resources to cover its epic endeavors . And how cold offices of international organizations went to doze between tribes , gain the trust of mining rough and drillers of oil wells to move forward with a project like the hand of man or test the effects of immigration globalization before were produced Exodus translating them in their work .
In Genesis , Salgado has achieved an inner journey that anyone can be part - either exposure or plunging into the pages of spectacular tome published Taschen - feeling it outdoors. Mutant laws of the universe will manifest it. " I do not think there is an established order , but a common and natural evolution between the mineral , the animal and the plant , an interaction ," explains .
This has walked , has managed to extract energy ancient route linking as Lalibela and the Simien Park , Ethiopia. In total , 850 miles on foot in three months. "The journey of my life ," he confesses . An odyssey for bringing together a team of 15 people and 18 workhorses in transporting the supplies and material. " So I could experience what it is told in the Old Testament, how people traveled then as he lived ." The trails were marked by the imprint of man for over 5,000 years and is still intact , as the customs of some . They got up every morning at five o'clock in the morning and undertook journeys of approximately 30 miles in 10 to 12 hours. Without too inflexible plans - "I had to stop and photograph , of course " - with GPS and a cook , according to grand Salgado. His wife , Leila , joined them at the only crossroads that could bring drive from Addis Ababa and 350 miles later accompanied them on foot. It is impossible to understand the work of Salgado without your partner for life , he designed catalogs and exhibitions , accompanied him on trips and encouraged to address their epic projects.
Here's how Sebastião Salgado wanted to portray the roots that stick us to the Earth , through environments still reigning stalking tiger , protected caves and routes from watching the bright tide mutated forests and sand- deserts, erosion of meandering channels where there are no houses beyond the ceiling featuring trees , where women, without a word, washed the feet of the stranger and the mothers breast is available to the hunger of their children. Where issues of life in the wild order, with its covenant acclimatised necessary balance elsewhere are losing law.
