Saudek is considered one of the top photographers from Czechoslovakia and is well known internationally for his work. His photograph Black Sheep & White Crow, which featured a woman sitting next to a partly clad young girl, was showing as part of a series from the well-known Czech photographer presenting various dreamscapes, with nude or semi-nude figures, and investigating erotic themes. Saudek is one of the key exhibitors in the core program for the festival. The image was withdrawn from Saudek’s exhibition Dolce Vita following a complaint made to the Office of the Child Safety Commissioner in Victoria by a woman who saw it in an advertisement for the festival which had appeared in Art Almanac magazine. An image of a partly dressed young girl by internationally renowned Czech photographer Jan Saudek has been withdrawn from an exhibition of his images at the 2011 Ballarat International Foto Biennale.
