The Concentration Camp Exhibition

I have taken a few years off to finish my doctorate and now I am back to share my research with you. You are all warmly invited to attend this one-week only exhibition, accompanied by guided tours.

Vernissage: Thursday, March 26, 7pm -10pm.
Material Art Space, Klingenstrasse 23, Zurich
Guided Tours: Sunday, March 29, 3pm. Additional tours may be available by appointment.

The Concentration Camp Exhibition features artwork that I discovered during the course of my doctoral research, made in a concentration camp in Transnistria during the Holocaust. Some of the works were displayed immediately after the war in an eponymous exhibition long since forgotten by time and the politics of memory. This is the first attempt to recreate that 1945 exhibition and also present other drawings and artefacts made in the camp by the Jewish detainees. Also shown will be the first documentary about the camp, Vapniarka: Camp of Death
