Aperture's new edition of Koudelka: Gypsies rekindles the energy and astonishment of this foundational body of work by master photographer Josef Koudelka. Lavishly printed in a unique quadratone mix by artisanal printer Gerhard Steidl, it offers an expanded look at "Cikáni" (Czech for "gypsies" )--109 photographs of Roma society taken between 1962 and 1971 in then-Czechoslovakia (Bohemia, Moravia and Slovakia), Romania, Hungary, France and Spain. The design and edit for this volume revisits the artist's original intention for the work, and is based on a maquette originally prepared in 1968 by Koudelka and graphic designer Milan Kopriva. Koudelka intended to publish the work in Prague, but was forced to flee Czechoslovakia, landing eventually in Paris. In 1975, Robert Delpire, Aperture and Koudelka collaborated to publish Gitans, la fin du voyage (Gypsies, in the English-language edition), a selection of 60 photographs taken in various Roma settlements around East Slovakia. Gypsies includes more than 30 never-before-published images.

About the Author
Koudelka, Josef: - In 1968, Josef Koudelka photographed the Soviet-led invasion of Czechoslovakia, publishing these images under the initials P. P. (Prague Photographer). Koudelka left Czechoslovakia in 1970, became stateless, was then granted political asylum in England, and shortly thereafter joined Magnum Photos. Koudelka has published eleven books of photographs focusing on the relationship between contemporary man and the landscape, including Gypsies (1975), Exiles (1988), Black Triangle (1994), Invasion 68: Prague (2008), and Wall (2013). Significant exhibitions of his work have been held at the Museum of Modern Art and the International Center of Photography, New York; Hayward Gallery, London; and Palais de Tokyo, Paris. Koudelka is the recipient of the Medal of Merit awarded by the Czech Republic (2002) and numerous other awards. In 2012, he was named Commandeur de l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres by the French Ministry of Culture. He is based in Paris and Prague.Guy, Will: - Will Guy is a research fellow in sociology at the University of Bristol, UK. He contributed the text for the original edition of Gypsies in 1975, while completing his PhD on Czechoslovak Communist policy on Roma. His recent academic research, undertaken on behalf of the European Commission and international NGOs, focuses on the evaluation of initiatives promoting Roma social inclusion. He has published widely on this topic and is editor of two books, Between Past and Future: The Roma of Central and Eastern Europe (2001) and Roma Migration in Europe: Case Studies (2004).

It was just what I needed, no electronics.
Easy to fill and change flake sizes. Then just twist and go.

Lid on one did not work/grind salt or pepper
I received 2 of these products . One is good. The other lid was not good to grind. I had to purchase from a different seller and take the lid off that one to exchange for the lid that would not grind. Nothing would come out no matter how much I tried adjusting the lid. So I was actually out of money for having to reorder another salt/pepper grinder. The one that worked I give 5 stars the one that didn’t I wish I could get a refund on but it’s probably too late to receive a refund. I didn’t try it out until it was too late for a refund.

Good Buy
I used for the first time today. I’m very pleased at how it functioned. Ease of use is great and it looks nice as well. It’s larger than I expected and I’m very pleased with that, because it means I don’t have to refill the bottle so often. I only purchased to use for the peppercorn not for salt. I’ll buy another one for the Himalayan salt. I highly recommend.

You have to adjust them to how course you want your salt and pepper and they are not electric mills

Comes in a set and nicely priced! Seem to be of good quality and they work well. These aren’t battery operated and you control the amount and courseness of the salt and pepper yourself. They look great in any kitchen and they are refillable, which I really like! They have a good ergonomic design to them so they’re easy to handle and operate. The speed of the grinding depends on how you operate it. I really like these and highly recommend them! Great value! 👍
