A photo book by Czech artist Jindřich Stilsky. Stilsky is a representative artist of Czech Surrealism and has been active in various fields such as painters, photographers, poets, illustrators and designers. He traveled to Paris in the mid-20s with his public and private partner Toyen, and became friends with the Surrealist groups in Paris, including André Breton and Man Ray. He is an artist who has made a great contribution to the promotion of Czech avant-garde art through the launch of "Surrealism" and numerous avant-garde creative activities. It seems that he started taking photographs in the early 1920s, but he announced them publicly in the mid-1930s. There are only a few works in the form of photo books, including "On the Needles of These Days." This book is a collection of paperback-sized series of major works by representative Czech artists, and is a very valuable book that contains many photographic works of Stilsky. Both Czech and English.
