Mark Strizic was a 20th-century Croatian-Australian photographer and artist. Best known for his architectural and industrial photography, he was also a portraitist of significant Australians,〔Elliot, Simon ''Poet of the Fleeting Moment'' in Portrait magazine, publication of the National Portrait Gallery of Australia, online archive http://www.portrait.gov.au/magazine/article.php?articleID=228&author=9〕 and fine art photographer and painter known for his multimedia mural work. Strizic and other post-war immigrant photographers Wolfgang Sievers, Henry Talbot, Richard Woldendorp, Bruno Benini, Margaret Michaelis, Dieter Muller, David Mist and Helmut Newton brought modernism to Australian photography.〔Ennis, Helen (2007) ''Photography and Australia'' London Reaktion Books, ISBN 186189323X, 9781861893239 p.83-84〕〔entry, Powerhouse Museum, Sydney archive http://www.powerhousemuseum.com/collection/database/?irn=319150〕 == Early life & migration == Marko Strizic was born in 1928 in Berlin, where his father, 〔Portrait of his father by Mark Strizic at http://nla.gov.au/nla.pic-an12153872〕 (1902–1990), was studying and practising architecture (later becoming a Professor of Architecture〔He was a lecturer in the Brunswick School, an influential German school of architecture of the postwar period :de:Braunschweiger Schule〕). His mother was a textile designer, trained in Berlin, who contributed to Zdenko's practice.〔''Professor's Wife From Yugoslavia'' ''The Age''. 15 May 1957, p. 5 https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=BlURAAAAIBAJ&sjid=ppUDAAAAIBAJ&dq=strizic&pg=7124%2C2045150〕 In 1934, in reaction to Hitler’s appointment as Chancellor, the family fled to Zagreb, Yugoslavia (now Croatia). There Strizic began to study physics and geology. At the end of WW2, Strizic fled to Austria as a refugee following the liberation of Yugoslavia to escape the Communist regime. As there was a five-year waiting period to emigrate to the United States, he decided to go instead to Australia. He departed Naples on the converted Australian Navy seaplane carrier Hellenic Prince, arriving in Melbourne in April 1950. There his good spoken English soon gained him a position as a clerk with the Victorian Railways Reclamation Department,〔Conversation with Strizic recorded in Matthews, Emma (2009) ''Mark Strizic Melbourne: Marvellous to Modern''. Melbourne, Thames and Hudson ISBN 9780500500194〕 and he resumed his studies in physics part-time at the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology. In 1952 he married Hungarian-born Sue. He settled in Richmond, subsequently moving with his wife to South Yarra, South Melbourne, then Kew,(Possibly Kew before South Melbourne), and finally to Wallan, in country Victoria, living there until his death in 2012. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mark Strizic」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
