Talk and Film Screening
accompanying the exhibitions by Wolf Suschitzky and Edith Tudor-Hart

Thursday, 13 August 2020, 7 pm

Excerpts from films will be shown and the curators of the exhibition will talk to the two contemporary witnesses Julia Winckler and Lillian Birnbaum.


FOTOHOF / Inge-Morath-Platz 1-3 / 5020 Salzburg / Austria


Julia Winckler from the University of Brighton presents excerpts from her film "Children are the future", in which Wolf Suschitzky talks about his photographs of children and the influence of his sister Edith Tudor-Hart on his own work. The film refers to an early film work by Wolf Suschitzky, "Children of the City" (1944), in which his social enlightenment approach is clearly visible.

This is also the link to the work of his sister Edith Tudor-Hart, whose photos can be seen in the FOTOHOF archive. Lillian Birnbaum will take part in this discussion; she produced, among other things, the film "Tracking Edith" (1916).

The curators of the exhibition at the FOTOHOF will talk to the two contemporary witnesses and to the visitors.

The event is public and free of charge. To get a guaranteed seat according to the current Corona regulations, please register by email (fotohof@fotohof.at) or during the gallery's opening hours by calling 0662-849296.
