Title: Pindorama
Description: Pindorama is the Brazil of Araquém Alcântara. A bouquet of photographs taken in 50 years of wandering around Brazil. Prism of our natural and cultural diversity, the book highlights our colors: on the pages of Pindorama, Araquém opens windows into a solar Brazil - a breeze of beauty in dark times. Considered by critics as one of the pioneers of nature photography in Brazil, Araquém Alcântara (São Paulo, Brazil 1951) is actively engaged in the fight for the environment and for the preservation of forests and national parks. He is the first photographer to document all national parks in Brazil and produce a special edition in collaboration for the National Geographic Society, (Bichos do Brasil). He is also the first photographer to conduct a systematic essay on the country's ecosystems and conservation units, a work that only ended after twenty-two years of incessant expeditions through the backcountry of Brazil
