Chaos

Le livre

For the past 12 years, Koudelka has made photographs using a panoramic format camera, exploring its formal possibilities with rigour and originality, and Chaos is the fulfilment of Koudelkas panoramic vision. Paradoxically, the images in Chaos viciously expose the anarchy which man imposes on nature and on himself writes Robert Delpire in his foreword, beyond all controversy, they denounce the absurdity of a world turned into a scene of dereliction. Josef Koudelka recreates a dream space, an elsewhere beyond time, beyond location, within which he organizes the shapeless and the chaotic. Chaos is dramatic, provocative and beautiful. Koudelkas next publishing landmark, it will have a powerful impact within the art and photography world.
