Paris inaugure une exposition en hommage à Sebastião Salgado

La mairie de Paris a inauguré une exposition gratuite présentant environ 200 photographies du photographe brésilien Sebastião Salgado, décédé en mai 2025 à l'âge de 81 ans. Organisée par sa compagne de toujours Lélia Wanick Salgado, l'exposition couvre les différentes étapes de sa carrière, mettant l'accent sur des thèmes tels que la migration, le travail, les inégalités et la préservation de l'environnement.

Sebastião Salgado, l'un des plus grands photographes documentaires au monde, né en 1944 dans l'État du Minas Gerais au Brésil, fait l'objet d'un hommage posthume à Paris, la ville qu'il avait choisie comme foyer. L'exposition gratuite, ouverte au public, présente environ 200 images en noir et blanc qui définissent son style singulier et son engagement envers les causes sociales et environnementales.

Lélia Wanick Salgado, qui a initié l'ancien économiste à la photographie dans le Paris des années 1970 — où le couple s'était installé après avoir quitté le Brésil en pleine dictature militaire — est la commissaire de l'exposition. Elle inclut des projets tels que l'Instituto Terra, une initiative de reforestation menée par Salgado et sa famille pour revitaliser des zones déforestées.

Au fil des décennies, Salgado a capturé les réalités difficiles du monde pour susciter la réflexion et le changement. L'exposition se tiendra jusqu'en mai 2026, consolidant ainsi son héritage humaniste.
