Book Synopsis Surrealism and Photography in Czechoslovakia by : Krzysztof Fijalkowski
Download or read book Surrealism and Photography in Czechoslovakia written by Krzysztof Fijalkowski and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Surrealism and Photography in Czechoslovakia: On the Needles of Days sheds much-needed light on the location of the greatest concentration of Surrealist photography and examines the culture and tradition within which it has taken root and flourished. The volume explores a rich and important artistic output, very little of which has been seen outside of its land of origin. Based on extensive research at museums in Prague and Brno and many conversations with participants in and historians of the movement, Krzysztof Fijalkowski, Michael Richardson and Ian Walker analyse how this photographic work has developed cohesively and rigorously, from the beginnings of Czech Surrealism in 1934, to the intriguing researches of the present-day Czech and Slovak Surrealist group by way of mysterious veiled responses to the repressive contexts with which they were faced from the 1950s to the 1980s. The main chapters, ordered chronologically, are intersected with shorter texts examining specific works. The reader will find in this volume images that present challenges to our understanding of how photographic work has been used within surrealism, pinpointing individual pictures whose dynamic charge may induce instants of compelling interrogation and disruption.

Book Synopsis Czech Photographic Avant-Garde, 1918-1948 by : Vladimir Birgus
Download or read book Czech Photographic Avant-Garde, 1918-1948 written by Vladimir Birgus and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2002-06-21 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first comprehensive survey of Czech avant-garde photography of the first half of the twentieth century. Not until the fall of the communist regime in 1989 and the end of Czechoslovakia's cultural isolation did the world begin to appreciate the Czech avant-garde photographers of the first half of the twentieth century. This first survey of Czech avant-garde photography introduces the important work of František Drtikol, Jaromir Funke, Jaroslav Rössler, Jindøich Štyrský, Josef Sudek, and numerous others whose work made Czech photography synonymous with visions of modernity. The essays introduce the period and explore the background and connections among the photographers. Biographical profiles are also included. But the book's main attraction is its outstanding collection of duotone and color images, many published here for the first time. The Czech edition of this book received the "Best Photographic Publication of 1999-2000" award from Primavera Fotográfica in Barcelona and from Month of Photography in Bratislava and was one of six finalists for the 2001 Kraszna-Krausz Photography Book Award.
Download or read book August 1968 written by Ladislav Bielik and published by Slovart Publishing, Limited. This book was released on 2008 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In August 1968, photojournalist Ladislav Bielik documented the end of the Prague Spring at the hands of the Warsaw Pact's armies. Of the 187 photos he took of that tumultuous time, one of the most famous was of a bare-chested man in front of the occupier's tank. The image has become one of the best known and most significant pictures of the 20th century. This splendid volume shows most of the shots hidden in the cellar of Bielik's house from the secret police. His son discovered the photos by chance and organized their transfer to the West where they have been published. This volume also provides a brief history of the reasons for the Prague Spring, and the events that took place after it was brutally crushed by the authorities. This volume documents an exhilarating time in Eastern European history, and its somber, heartbreaking end.

Download or read book Czech Eden written by Matthew Monteith and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When he first visited the Czech Republic in the 1990s, Matthew Monteith was taken with the details of ordinary life in this country in transition. Captivated by the ineffablea mood, a sense of placehe made repeated visits and in 20013 traveled throughout the country photographing with the hope of creating a contemporary allegory that reflected ideals he had found in old postcards and Czech photography from the 1920s and 30s. With their restraint, brilliant color, and thoughtful attention to the uncanny within the everyday, Monteiths photographs parallel a venerable tradition staked out by masters such as Joel Sternfeld and embodied in contemporary work by practitioners such as Alec Soth. Though at times foreboding, Monteiths work is pervaded by an energetic optimism and humor. Meticulously composed and beautifully produced images focus on individuals, landscapes, oddly stilled cityscapes, and the worn traces of the countrys long and complex history. Czech Eden is not a literal description or documentation, but rather a parable in which the viewer encounters individuals and environments that are cohesive yet contradictory, beautiful but unsettling.
