07.06.−03.08.24

Opening: Thursday, June 6, 2024, 7 p.m

“Edith Tudor-Hart (née Edith Suschitzky) was a central protagonist of social documentary photography between 1930 and 1955. She pointed out social injustices, dealt with topics such as poverty, integration and women’s rights and depicted the living conditions of the working class. Her work is influenced by the New Vision style and made an important contribution to the representation of progressive educational methods, modernist architecture and modern dance. Coming from a Jewish family in Vienna and as a convinced communist, her life was marked by political persecution and personal blows of fate. During her life, Edith Tudor-Hart fought against the emerging fascism and the exclusion of minorities and in her work she combined her personal attitude with the social image of her time.”
