To understand what's going on in Ukraine, it's useful to look at the work of Lithuanian photographer Antanas Sutkus, whose work is collected in four books from @steidlverlag — all reviewed by @meganhullander @documentjournal⁠ ⁠ "For some six decades, @sutkus.photo has been photographing people on the streets of Lithuania. He was only 20 when he first started shooting in Vilnius in 1959, then the capital of the Soviet Socialist Republic of Lithuania. The images he makes are textured—both in the rich whites, blacks, and grays they are composed of, and in the types of lives they depict, rendering the complexity of the ordinary people he encounters wandering the city. Even amid the Soviet occupation that rendered his home country restricted, Sutkus found life.⁠ ⁠ The photographer’s latest book, 'Street Life' is his fourth with Steidl, each of which depicts the Lithuanian people’s subtle and sometimes subconscious assertions of self. His first book, 'Planet Lithuania' (2018), is a record of that spirit, and of the ways in which it’s endured over time. 'Pro Memoria' (2020) collects Sutkus’s photographs of the Kaunas Jews who had escaped death in concentration camps—a penitent and forward-looking perspective of a dark period in Lithuania’s history. 'Children' (2021) details Sutkus’s longstanding fascination with one of his most beloved subjects, and the complexities of their lives; 'children live in a different world,' he once mused. 'Sometimes I succeeded in showing that world.'"⁠ ⁠ Read the full review via linkinbio.⁠ ⁠ #antanassutkus #lithuania #lithuanianphotography #sovietphotography⁠ https://www.instagram.com/p/CpnqWh-pAgQ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

'Antanas Sutkus: Planet Lithuania' — a 278-page collection of humanist photographs documenting life in Lithuania during its occupation by the Soviet Union — is reviewed this month @theindependentphoto⁠ ⁠ Sutkus "sought to capture the reality of life in his homeland, in direct opposition to the quixotism of Socialist Realism," Rosie Torres writes. ⁠ ⁠ "Though thematically fairly consistent, 'Planet Lithuania' demonstrates the full extent of his artistry, revealing a penetrative yet sensitive gaze to rival that of his significantly more celebrated contemporaries.⁠ ⁠ Dynamic black and white renderings, expertly composed, are imbued with movement and atmosphere that, on occasion, verge on the abstract. Portraits, forthright and absorbing, at times, melancholic, and candid moments of everyday life: children playing insouciantly; workers of all kinds, and young couples wrapped in each other’s arms, a subject he captures with a profound tenderness reminiscent of Alfred Eisenstaedt’s iconic iterations.⁠ ⁠ Immortalized in delicate monochromatic hues, his images display a dexterous understanding of light and form, and a reflexivity that unites almost all great photography of this kind. His profound affection for his compatriots is palpable throughout, his images convey a deep benevolence, warmth, and respect."⁠ ⁠ Read the full review via linkinbio.⁠ ⁠ #AntanasSutkus @sutkus.photo #lithuania #planetlithuania #sovietoccupation ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ https://www.instagram.com/p/CbA05iKJN3_/?utm_medium=tumblr
