Phillips is honored to present Sebastião Salgado: A Life’s Voyage, an exceptional group of 30 works from a distinguished private collection. The work will be offered across two sales: a dedicated online auction, closing 10 April, and a special section within Phillips’ 11 April auction of Photographs. The photographs from this collection encompass the full scope of Sebastião Salgado’s remarkable career, including two rare portfolios, Gold Mine and Kuwait: A Desert on Fire, as well as a compelling array of Salgado’s most iconic images. Spanning four decades across four continents, these images reflect Salgado’s limitless pursuit of image making, his life’s voyage. From the Amazon rainforest to the Sahara Desert to the Antarctic tundra, Salgado captured human hardships and nature’s sublime beauty in full context, bringing humanitarian and environmental issues to the forefront of his work to affect change. Salgado’s pioneering social documentary approach left an indelible mark on the medium of photography.
