| | A look at the Josef Koudelka retrospective - 10-01-2003 - Radio Prague |
 | | Here we have a chance to observe Koudelka's earliest fl and white images, which had a remarkable influence on how theatre in Czechoslovakia was photographed at that time: strong lighting, flattened images of faces, stylisation in away reminiscent of early prints by Andy Warhol in its graphic simplicity. |
 | | In her writings from the 1960s Mrs Farova points out that even Koudelka left photographing the theatre for other themes, he began to look for the theatrical in the world., something which is certainly embodied by the series 'Gypsies', shot between 1962 and 1970. |
 | | Finally, some subjects in Koudelka's pictures have little choice but to lie still: a wolf, or is it a dog(?), shot through the head while tied to a tree, its fang bared in a growl. |
