	The Photography of Jan Saudek
		One of Saudek's most persistent themes is the inevitability of aging, the wilting of the beauty of youth with which he is clearly intrigued.
		Saudek is fascinated with youth, and many of his more controversial images include nude images of children and pubescent girls.
		That Saudek's creative energy has survived decades of repression in both Communist and post-Communist Czechoslovakia, as well as the continuing disdain of most critics in the West, is a testimony to the power of his commitment to himself and his work.

		Saudek is himself determined to do away with the double-standards with which obsessions can only be indulged in secret dark-rooms.
		The personal nature of his work was determined not only by the lasting impact which the photographic exhibition "The Family of Man" had on him, but also his experience, as a child, of narrowly escaping the appalling experiments of the concentration camp doctor Mengele.
		Saudek has survived all the political changes in his native Czechoslovakia, and today is one of the best-known photographers of the nude.

		At 70 years, Saudek, arguably the Czech Republic's most famous living photographer, still breaks women's hearts — "They try to pick me up all the time on the tram," he says — and has no shortage of female models begging to be photographed.
		Formerly Saudek's muse, now a photographer in her own right, Sára Saudková, who took Saudek's last name although the two were never married, sits quietly, ready to parry any of Saudek's comments with a biting repost.
		Saudek celebrates the human body in all its various shapes, but he characterizes the nudity in his work as a means rather than an end.

		Perhaps my favorite two photos in the entire book is one where a nude woman is sitting upright with her legs folded behind her head as she peers through a set of binoculars, and a photo of an overweight woman standing naked with large dark freckles and rosy cheeks painted on her face.
		The other photo is of Jan kissing a woman as they both lie in a field, while in the distance another woman is hanging by her neck from a tree branch.

		Jan Saudek was born in Prague in 1935, and is undoubtedly one of the most provocative figures in the history of photography.
		Saudek's life has been one great pilgrimage of pain, starting from a childhood tragically branded with Hilter's hallmark of non-Aryan birth; a time of humiliation when he and his twin brother, Karel, found themselves in a special children's concentration camp somewhere on the Polish border.
		Saudek believed the words of his critic and lost interest in photography.

	Welcome to the Best of New Orleans! Art Review 08 10 04
		As Czechoslovakia's best known photographer, Saudek reflects something of his country's tumultuous past, yet his images, taken at face value, are more like exercises in seduction, and occasionally revulsion, melded with mystery.
		Not content to leave it at that, Saudek ends up revealing a lot more, so we learn that she is averse to wearing panties.
		It helps to know that Saudek, who is now pushing 70, was once a young prisoner in a Nazi concentration camp for children, where he barely avoided becoming a victim of Dr. Josef Mengele's deadly experiments.

		The Baruchs made many trips and many purchases from Saudek, Sudek, Anderle, and others, and then showed and sold the work in their Michigan Avenue Gallery to great acclaim.
		Although Jan Saudek is acknowledged to be one of the greatest erotic photographers, his subject matter goes beyond mere nudes and sensual experience.

		Internationally famous Czech photographer Jan Saudek is no exception, and equally as uncompromising in pursuit of his own unique vision.
		For nearly four decades Saudek has created a parallel photographic universe, a two-dimensional home full of longing, peopled with the most extraordinary characters and coloured by desire.
		Rejecting the supermodel look in his famous nude photographs, Saudek shows the distinctively different: Old women, fat women, children; real people in tableaux vivants that remind us of everything from surreal early movies to fin-de-siecle carnival nights.
