Reopening and extension of Sebastião Salgado's "Genesis" exhibition at La Sucrière in Lyon.

Salgado's exhibition "Genesis" is open again after 2 months of closure at La Sucrière in Lyon. The exhibition is extended until July 26th.

Genesis is the great exhibition of Sebastião Salgado, his own photographic tribute to our planet. From February 20th, 2020, discover at La Sucrière more than 200 black and white photographs, which are the result of an epic eight-year work and about thirty trips around the world. Through five geographic chapters, the exhibition becomes a journey to the landscapes, seascapes, animals and peoples that have so far escaped the long reach of today’s world.

« Through these photographs, Genesis aspires to show and to share this beauty. It is a visual tribute to a fragile planet that we all have a duty to protect. »

- Lélia Wanick Salgado, curator.

 

Exhibition open Wednesday to Sunday from 10am to 5pm (last entrance at 4pm)
