Wolfgang Suschitzky

(1912-2016), Photographer and cinematographer

Artist of 77 portraits
Born in Vienna, Wolfgang Suschitzky studied at the Austrian State School for Photography. Like many of his contemporaries, he was deeply influenced by the Foto-Auge exhibition of 1929. He came to London in the 1930s, where he produced a series of documentary photographs of the West End, and worked as photojournalist. From the late 1930s he worked as a film cameraman on documentary and feature films.
