a cinematographer. Wolf (or Su, as he is also known) is featured in the book Conversations with Cinematographers by David A Ellis (Scarecrow Press). Photography For Wolf Suschitzky, who was described as having " social conscience of a documentarian and the eye of a german expressionist", the depiction of work and working people occupies a central place in his photographic oeuvre., documentary photography consisted in the sympathetic-commentary depiction of social conditions: "The photo document is the reflection of the contemporary scene and represents in its best form subtle photographic comment on social conditions, rather than direct social propaganda", Suschitzky said. At the beginning of his career, he photographed classic commissioned works for magazines such as Picture Post, Illustrated, Animal and Zoo or Geographic Magazine; later, his photographs were largely taken alongside his work as a cameraman. Characteristic of his photographic work is that it is often not possible to clearly distinguish between his fields of activity, that he often used film and photo camera almost simultaneously, which can lead to special aesthetic effects, such as motifs existing several times in different contexts or documentary photography being created on the fringes of cinematic productions, as Peter Schreiner puts it: "Suschitzky's Photographs "are difficult to ascribe to a particular photographic genre. On the one hand, they represent vivid records that provide an account of what are now historical contexts, of traditional craft and of heavy industrial production, but above all of social relationships within a restless world. On the other, they themselves are the products of a particular context of production. The fact that they were taken either on the periphery or at the very heart of (documentary) film sets [...] is also an essential characteristic that contributes to Wolf Suschitzky's distinctive blend of naturalistic and staged moments." His photographic estate is largely housed in the FOTOHOF archiv. The Wolf Suschitzky Photography Prize has been awarded every two years since 2018 by the Austrian Cultural Forum London: to reflect Suschitzky's connection to his homeland as well as his adopted country, the prize is awarded simultaneously to one Austrian and one British photographer. A jury will select one winner from each country, who will receive prize money, exhibition opportunities and a residency in the other country. Death Suschitzky died on 7 October 2016 at the age of 104 in London. Partial filmography World of Plenty (Paul Rotha, 1943) The World Is Rich (1947)
