Josef Koudelka: Wall
Wall: Israeli and Palestinian Landscape, 2008-2012is Josef Koudelka's book of purposely ugly photos—from which we cannot turn away. His expansive, brooding black-and-white panoramas have a paradoxical effect: Rather than expand our field of vision they close us in, evoking the experience of closed-off lands and claustrophobic, walled-in streets. —Christopher Lyon
