Also included for the first time in one location are various texts and essays by authors such as Kurt Beers, theorist Edward Lucie-Smith, critic Tony Godfrey, a brand-new foreword by David Liss, (Artistic Director and Curator at Museum of Contemporary Art, Toronto) and various interviews by Salgado throughout the years that detail the intentions, inspirations, and motivations behind his work and practice. Included are never-before-seen insights to Andrew’s working methods, source imagery of his subjects, and a sneak-peek into what motivates and inspires him. Each copy of the book has an ISBN and the first-edition is limited to 1500 copies.
The book will be finished and shipped to patrons on December 1, 2016 and will coincide with an exhibition of the same name at The Gallery of the Canadian High Commission in Trafalgar Square, London.
