Sebastiao Salgado: Children / Enfants / Kinder

While being, as always, full of exceptional photographs, this Salgaod's book is a little different from the others. Indeed it contains a series of children portraits, quite classical in their composition. Yet a intense emotrion emerges from the book !A must have in your library if you like black and white photography, and of course if you appreciate Salgado's work.

like any Salgado's books these photos are beatiful

Salgado shows us the children who reside in Refugee Camps around the world, children who have witnessed and/or been victimized by mankind's inhumanity; and what stands out superbly is the inherent human dignity of earth's children -EVEN THESE! As Jesus said about children: "such as these are of the kingdom of heaven. Fine photographic rapport and capture of these human people. Heartwrenching to some of us.

Hermos

Some of the images in the eyes of the children are haunting. So much to ponder and reflect on each child.

Salgado shows us what war, poverty, and disaster does to the innocent. He has captured faces of children, who through some cruel fate have reaped only hardship in short time on earth. Yet, despite conditions of despair, some of these children manage a smile, a look of hope, and an attitude that defies their situation.No words or captions are attached to the photos, rather Salgado lets each child convey their own message to you through their portrait. He brilliantly uses black & white film to heighten the intensity of each face, a face that looks you right in the eye and I swear, talks to you. If you want to know more about each photo an appendix is provide with date/place.This is book that will stay in my collection, as it should, it is brilliantly done! "Children, Refugees and Migrants" desires to be prominently displayed in my house and it will be. Highly recommended

If you care about refugees, if you love children, if you just want to be reminded of the variety of humanity on this planet, or if you want to be moved to tears by the most beuatiful photographs of children, then buy this book. You won't regret it.

Excelente livro com ótimo acabamento. Imagens que proporcionam reflexão e incentivam o olhar crítico em razão de sua dimensão social e artística.

Die Bilder in diesem Buch erreichen das Herz.

Estos niños están tan bien reportados que parece que te miren en directo. Libro bien editado, fotos de gran calidad

It might not completely change you, it might not determine you to take action, it might not make you cry or feel pain or joy, it might not set your thoughts on fire, it might not deeply touch you... But then again, I hope it will! A classic into the work of Salgado. Wonderful children portraits from around the world, capturing beauty, innocence and at the same time complexity.
