  • Catalogue Essay

    Josef Sudek loved music – it is in his work. He sought beauty and found it nearly everywhere – often in what has come apart, disappeared, been destroyed: the spaces of absence and the beauty of what remains.
    K.P. Porter, ‘Impressions of Photography of Josef Sudek’, Josef Sudek, Pigment Prints, Salander O’Reilly Galleries, 1998, p. 17
