Description from the seller

JOSEF KOUDELKA — CHAOS

Original edition – 1999
A major work in Josef Koudelka’s corpus, Chaos is one of the most emblematic books of late 20th-century photography. Published in 1999, this volume gathers over ten years of the photographer’s work, executed in panoramic format, his most radical visual signature.

Across urban and natural landscapes marked by human intervention — ruins, architectural fractures, desolate territories — Koudelka offers a powerful vision, at once poetic, political, and timeless. Chaos is unanimously recognized as a reference book in the history of contemporary photography and of photographic publishing.

The Nathan / Delpire edition stands out for its editorial rigor and its historical importance in the dissemination of auteur photography in France. Today sought after, it constitutes an essential piece for collectors, specialized libraries and lovers of great photography books.
