We are offering for sale an exclusive collection of 45 large-format posters (75x56 cm), produced in Barcelona in 1997, which gather some of the most moving images by master Sebastião Salgado. Each piece includes a 61x54 cm photograph that captures the intensity, strength, and dignity of Movimento dos Sem Terra, one of the most powerful chapters of social activism in Brazil.

This special edition, conceived and designed by Lélia Wanick Salgado, is accompanied by texts from Nobel laureate José Saramago and verses by musician Chico Buarque, transforming each poster into a dialogue between image, literature, and music. Produced by the prestigious photolithographer Jean Genoud and created in collaboration with Frères des Hommes Europe and the Fundació pels Drets Col·lectius dels Pobles, the collection maintains its original presentation: unbound, just as it was exhibited and marketed in its time, inviting an intimate, direct, and profoundly human experience.

For collectors, gallery owners, and photography lovers, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to acquire a significant piece of social documentary history. 'Terra'—the series to which this collection belongs—is one of Salgado's most conscious and committed works, an artist who, with works like Workers, Migrations, or Genesis, has redefined the way we see the world.

An essential piece for those seeking art that moves, challenges, and endures.
