HOWEVER... While Salgado is one of my all-time favorites, I can see how someone might apply the "g" label to some of his prints. I think they work. They are stunning. But some of them are...well...garish. But it has nothing to do with being European - because as far as I know, Brazil isn't part of the EU yet.;-) (Although I assume his work is printed in Paris as I believe he is based there.) B.

Like HCB's stuff? Like Berengo Gardin's stuff? Like Capa's stuff? Like Doisneau's stuff? Like Koudelka's stuff? Like Sudek's stuff? Like Atget's stuff? Like Sander's stuff? Like Kertesz's stuff? Like Brassai's stuff? Or do you mean some other kind of garish?
