We have already exhibited Sebastião Salgado in 2015, on the occasion of COP21, with his series "Genesis", which celebrated nature in all its splendour."2- "It reveals the fragility (of the Amazon). For us it is very important to expose these images in our spaces since we can reach thousands of travellers to make them aware of this heritage of nature and invite them to preserve it."
