Realities

This volume presents a retrospective of the work of Czech photographer Saudek, who combines eroticism and aesthetics in a distinct style using elaborately painted backdrops and interior walls, magical costumes, and props. The essay by John Wood (poet and photographic historian) and James Wood (curator of photography, Kinsey Institute) discusses the artist's ideas and work. The book contains 128 color reproductions that include some of Saudek's earliest photographs as well as his iconic pictures. Oversize: 9.75x12.25
