Description
Josef Koudelka (1938) is a Czech-French photographer. His early work significantly shaped his later photography, and its emphasis on social and cultural rituals as well as death. He soon moved on to a more personal, in depth photographic study of the Gypsies of Slovakia, and later Romania. This work was exhibited in Prague in 1967. Throughout his career, Koudelka has been praised for his ability to capture the presence of the human spirit amidst dark landscapes. In this photo a young Gypsy suspected of being guilty takes part in a murder reconstruction, in Jarabina, Czechoslovakia, 1963. During the Czech invasion by the Soviets in 1968 Koudelka stood before the tanks and took photos. He smuggled out his images, they went round the world and he fled to Britain.
