Pavel Nešleha – Traces of Force

Petr Wittlich’s Traces of Force is an insightful exploration of the photographic work of painter Pavel Nešleha (1937 – 2003) that sensitively uncovers the artist’s fundamental way of thinking and seeing. Wittlich guides the reader through Nešleha’s artistic cycles from 1971–2002, whose central motifs – influenced by the artist’s Romantic disposition – included natural processes, landscape sceneries, structures found in nature, and disappearing monuments imbued with cultural tradition and human history.
