Compiled by Sonja Bullaty, former assistant of Josef Sudek (Czech, 1896-1976), this is the first monograph on Sudek published in the West. From the publisher: This is the first book ever to be published in the West on the art of the great Czech photographer Josef Sudek. One of the great masters of XX-century photography, ranking alongside Atget, Man Ray, Steichen, Stieglitz, and Weston, Sudeks work has rarely been seen outside Czechoslovakia. Because of his habit of making a very small number of prints from his negatives, in many cases only one, few have ever been available to museums or collectors. Over the years almost all the photographs selected for this book were sent by Sudek to Sonja Bullaty in New York. It was Sudek s wish that these photographs would form a comprehensive collection of his work outside Czechoslovakia.
