Stark, impassioned and singularly intense, Josef Koudelka's work has received deserved acclaim over the past three decades as a uniquely significant contribution to the language of photography.
'Koudelka' is the first book to present over 150 of his most eloquent images in a single volume, from his earliest images - published here for the first time - to his most recent panoramic landscape studies.
Whether photographing avant-garde theatre, gypsies throughout Eastern Europe, resistance to Soviet guns and tanks advancing on Prague, or the environmental degradation of a post-industrial world, Koudelka has consistently produced images that provoke a connection to the larger questions of human existence.
Robert Delpire, Koudelka's longtime publisher, collaborated with the artist in conceiving and producing this title. The other essayists in 'Koudelka' each explore a different aspect of the artist's work, illustrating his constant evolution and intensity.
