Antanas Sutkus: Street Life

Edited by Thomas Schirmböck. Text by Johanna Adorján.

Antanas Sutkus captures small moments of joy in late-1950s Soviet-occupied Lithuania

In 1959, Antanas Sutkus (born 1939) began photographing on the streets of Vilnius, then the capital of the Soviet Socialist Republic of Lithuania. Together, these images offer a humanist outlook on daily life as it was offered to him by his fellow citizens.

Featured image is reproduced from ‘Antanas Sutkus: Street Life'.

PRAISE AND REVIEWS

Document Journal

Megan Hullander

Street Life portraits not only a place, but also Sutkus himself, who's framed as a flaneur more so than a photographer, the humanism characteristic to his images attributed to his ability to observe rather than angle—to find smiles rather than force them.
