‘Genocídio do Yanomami’ (Yanomami Genocide) is a major monograph by Claudia Andujar, published by Void and developed in close collaboration with Galeria Vermelho (São Paulo, Brazil). It brings together an extensive body of previously unpublished photographs made between 1971 and 1989 among the Yanomami. Originally shot in black and white, Andujar rephotographed and re-illuminated these images in 1989, revealing new angles and distortions—reshaping their meaning and urgency for that moment and the years that followed. Alongside her artistic work, Andujar co-founded the Pro-Yanomami Commission in 1978 with Yanomami leader Davi Kopenawa, a 14-year effort that led to the demarcation of Yanomami Territory in 1992. Yet the struggle continues: illegal mining and state violence persist. This book bears witness to a people whose future has been continually threatened, and whose survival remains a fierce, ongoing resistance.
