The Austrian Cultural Forum London invites emerging photographers based in Austria and the UK to participate in a prize in tribute of the late Austrian émigré photographer Wolf Suschitzky.
For our fourth edition of the prize the ACF London invites submissions by emerging photographers on the theme of “All the world’s a stage”. Taking this line in Shakespeare’s play As You Like It we were inspired by Wolf Suschitzky’s ability to capture the human experience. With his camera he documented and found the beauty in universal and personal moments. Suschitzky was known for his versatility and his ability to apply himself to different situations. Each of his photographs conveys key elements of his attitude as a photographer: curiosity, fascination, spontaneity, as well as a genuine concern and respect for those who he photographed. The world was a stage, each individual an actor and Suschitzky was there to document the performance of life! We hope that this theme finds inspiration and welcome submissions which respond to this in a variety of ways.
This prize celebrates and reflects Wolf Suschitzky’s strong connection to both the land of birth and his chosen home.
