Jaroslav Rössler

by Vladimir Birgus

Prague: Torst, 2001. Small square softcover devoted to this interesting Czech avant-garde photographer. "Rossler started as an assistant to Frantisek Drtikol, but quickly abandoned the pictorial style of his renowned teacher and began to focus on minimalist details of actual objects and on geometric paper cut-outs, abstract compositions with shadow and light, inventive photomontages, and constructivist shots of modern engineering and architecture". Text in English and Czech. Light wear only.
