This book is a rich over­view of Anta­nas Sut­kus’ pho­tos of the peop­le of his nati­ve Lit­hua­nia during its occup­a­ti­on by the Soviet Uni­on. Sut­kus is abo­ve all a huma­nist pho­to­gra­pher, his “kos­mos” his fel­low citi­zens-child­ren, lovers, the elder­ly; how they enga­ge with moder­ni­ty and tra­di­ti­on, natu­re and the city, and express their iden­ti­ties-all cap­tu­red in a frank, empa­the­tic style that is far remo­ved from soviet ide­als and forms the foun­da­ti­on of the Lit­hua­ni­an school of photography.

By reve­aling indi­vi­du­al lives of digni­ty and inte­gri­ty behind the Iron Curtain, Sut­kus’ work is as poli­ti­cal as it is per­so­nal, a record of Lithuania’s asser­ti­on of its cul­tu­ral self against the Soviet Uni­on which occu­p­ied the coun­try from the Second World War until 1990. That strugg­le has sin­ce come to frui­ti­on: in 2004 Lit­hua­nia beca­me a mem­ber of both NATO and the Euro­pean Uni­on, and is today one of Europe’s fas­ting gro­wing economies.
