About the Item

Title: Mursi RoadBlock, Omo River Valley, Ethiopia, 2001. Printed later 2005 Sheet size: 20 in. H x 24 in. W Image size: 14.8 in. H x 22. In W Cyril Christo and Marie Wilkinson have been working together as a husband and wife team since 1997 when they began investigating and documenting the relationship between the indigenous human and natural world on five continents. Their concerns about climate change, globalization, and the future of life on earth started in the late 1990s as they witnessed drought, fire, and floods around the world. Their first book of photography in black and white, Lost Africa: The Eyes of Origin, explores the ecological and man-made challenges facing tribes from Ethiopia to Namibia. Their second book, Walking Thunder: In the Footsteps of the African Elephant, is a testament to the African elephant. Now, traveling with their son Lysander, Cyril and Marie are working on a dedication to three endangered bioregions and their iconic keystone species—the Arctic, the African savannah, and the forests of India. This project is called In Predatory Light.

  • Manifesto VI. From the Manifesto Series.
    By Guilherme Licurgo
    Located in Miami Beach, FL
    Manifesto VI From The Manifesto Series Inkjet print on cotton on paper Large: 60 in. H x 40 in. W Edition of 5 + 2 Other sizes are available. All Prices are quoted as "initial price". Please note that prices and availability may change due to current sales. _____________________ "Manifesto" by Brazilian photographer Guilherme Licurgo, curated by Ian Duarte Lucas. Composed of fifteen unpublished works, created in 2018, this is his most political content production ever presented. As a result of his cultivated critical eye, the photographer sheds light on the historical exclusion of the Brazilian population in decision-making processes in the country. Dramatically plunged into an endless political and economic crisis, Brazil finds itself in a chaotic situation. In this context, Guilherme Licurgo's new series gains even more relevance with the proximity of the presidential elections, taking as its starting point the widespread sense of absence of dialogue between the citizens and government, even more, sensitive in this period. In the photographer's words: “'Manifesto' is the dialectic between the individual and the collective. A representation of thoughts based on the maxims of great references in Sociology and Philosophy that unfold around me, here and now. ” From references by classical thinkers and philosophers such as Hegel and Émile Durkheim to contemporaries Zygmunt Bauman and Slavoj...
