Jaroslav Rössler: Abstract Photography, 1923-1978. "...First Czech avant-garde photographer, member of the Devětsil club. Studied at the firm Drtikol and co. (1917–1920), where he also met his wife, Gertruda Fischerová (1894–1976). The couple lived in Paris from December 1927 until the summer of 1935; they later worked in Prague. Creator of the oldest Czech photograms. His artistic legacy is an abstract vision developed during a career of more than a half-century."
