This major new monograph presents the most comprehensive survey of Koudelka's work to date, bringing together more than 150 of his most eloquent images--from his earliest, many published here for the first time, to his most recent: mesmerizing studies of the European landscape made with a panoramic camera. Whether photographing Prague's avant-garde theater scene in the 1960s, the secretive world of the Eastern European gypsies, Czech resistance to the Soviet advance on Prague, or the environmental degradation of our postindustrial world, Koudelka has consistently produced transformative images that stand outside of time and place. In the words of the legendary French photography-world figure and Koudelka's longtime champion and publisher, Robert Delpire, 'Koudelka brings an intense eye and full heart to each place, object, and person. This work proves once again that he is a photographer with unique personality and power.' Beautifully produced with duotone printing and three gatefolds, this volume also contains eight original essays, each exploring a different aspect of Koudelka's work and illustrating the artist's constant evolution and intensity. Customer Reviews Average Rating: Rating: - exercellent Koudelka is a great photographor. From his works, we figure out that we have to travel all over the world to get beautiful pictures. And from his works, we know it is not easy to get good pictures. First of all, we try to get involve into the pictures objects' life. Let they trust us and let us be the part of them. Actually, this is not easy at all. Not every one can do that and travel in a very long time. That is his life. Pictures were his life experients. Rating: - Legendary photographer, amazing book Aperture again solve the problem of encapsulating a career in a monograph of unsurpassed excellence. The quality of the photographs is a given in this instance: awesome, not a bad one in the bunch. The printing is first rate, the sequencing is spot on and the brief essays are pitch perfect. This is one of the best books I have purchased, and worth every penny. Catch it before it's out of print. Rating: - Excellent overview of Koudelka's opus Excellent, well balanced overview of Kuoudelka's work from his earliest days, experimenting with expressive, graphical effects and theater photography, through journalism, all the way to his latest achievements in panoramic, abstract landscapes. This book can serve as an introduction to this outstanding artist and motivation for exploring his opus in more detail. The integrity of Koudelka's photographs is one thing that really stands out in this book. Although his technical range is ... Read More Rating: - Wonderful Edition This compilation of Koudelkas work is definitive. It pulls together most of the important images from his books into a single beautifully printed volume. Indeed the printing is better than some of his long out of print titles. Wonderful to see the early works especially those from the Soviet Invasion. My only complaint is that I feel the work from Chaos is run too small (works better in its original format). Rating: - outstanding Without doubt the best book that i have purchased through amazon. Koudelka is a look at his best work.
