Josef Sudek Gallery

The Josef Sudek Gallery sits in a small pavilion building with glass walls nestled between apartment blocks in Prague. The space fills with natural light through its glass sides, which was essential for the photographic work that took place here for many decades.

The building was constructed in the early twentieth century and became the working studio of photographer Sudek starting in the 1920s. It was later recognized as a cultural monument and continues to represent an important chapter in Czech photographic history.

The space honors Josef Sudek, one of the most influential Czech photographers of the twentieth century. Visitors experience how this artist worked with natural light and see contemporary works by other Czech photographers displayed here.

Entry is through a small stairway, and the interior is compact and easy to explore completely. It works best to visit during warmer months when exhibitions run and the natural light displays the photographs most effectively.

The studio retains much of the original equipment and furniture that Sudek used during his time working here. Visitors can walk through the actual rooms where the black and white photographs were created that made Sudek known around the world.
