Josef Koudelka是當今全球最重要攝影大師之,是著名攝影團體Magnum成員。他在1970年因避難離開祖國後,就成為一個無國籍的人,漂泊在歐美各國攝影。本書是他代表作擴充版,新增十張作品。他的作品以一種無聲卻深沉的感染力衝擊感官。
About Exiles, Cornell Capa once wrote, "Koudelka's unsentimental, stark, brooding, intensely human imagery reflects his own spirit, the very essence of an exile who is at home wherever his
wandering body finds haven in the night. " In this newly revised and expanded edition of the 1988 classic, which includes ten new images and a new commentary with Robert Delpire, Koudelka's
work once more forms a powerful document of the spiritual and physical state of exile. The sense of private mystery that fills these photographs--mostly taken during Koudelka's many years of
wandering through Europe and Great Britain since leaving his native Czechoslovakia in 1968--speaks of passion and reserve, of his rage to see. Solitary, moving, deeply felt and strangely
disturbing, the images in Exiles suggest alienation, disconnection and love. Exiles evokes some of the most compelling and troubling themes of the twentieth century, while resonating with equal
force in this current moment of profound migrations and transience.
