Award-winning Brazilian photographer Salgado dies

The French Academy of Fine Arts, of which Salgado was a member, also confirmed his death.

The photographer had suffered from various health problems for many years after contracting malaria in the 1990s. "Sebastião was more than one of the best photographers of our time," Instituto Terra said in a statement. "His lense revealed the world and its contradictions; his life, (brought) the power of transformative action." "We will continue to honour his legacy, cultivating the land, the justice and the beauty that he so deeply believed could be restored," it added.
