46750
João Pina / Viviane Salles
João Pina's 46,750 addresses gang violence in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and the transformation the city has undergone over the past decade.
In 2016, while the world's eyes were on the Olympic Games, homicides rose by 20% and robberies by 40%. 46,750 is a portrait of Rio de Janeiro over the last ten years: the flip side of the “marvelous city,” full of contrasts and complexities. João Pina delves into the gang wars in the favelas, bringing us uncompromising images.
46,750, as we discover at the end of the book, is the number of homicides that took place in the urban area of Rio de Janeiro, an average of 13 homicides per day, from 2007 to 2016.
Viviane Salles's politically engaged poems punctuate the book, inserted between the photos on colored paper notebooks.
