Item Number: 127731 Title: JOSEF KOUDELKA Author: Witkovsky, Matthew S. (ed) Price: Not Available ISBN: 9780300203929 Description: New Haven: Yale University Press, for the Art Institute of Chicago, 2014. 31cm., pbk., 224pp., 200 illus., most in color. Exhibition catalogue. Summary : This retrospective catalog featues vintage prints as well as recent, unpublished work by internationally acclaimed photographer Josef Koudelka (b. 1938). A leading member of the photo agency Magnum, cofounded by his close friend Henri Cartier-Bresson, Koudelka has been a legend since the publication of his unforgettable eyewitness photographs taken during the invasion of Czechoslovakia by Soviet-led troops in 1968. In addition to Invasion and Exiles, Koudelka’s most ambitious project, Gypsies, is featured with the complete set of twenty-two prints first exhibited in 1967. Koudelka’s impressive imagery is accompanied here by five essays that provide a thorough understanding of and appreciation for this outstanding artist, willfully independent and reclusive despite his renown.
