Description
Seeing Auschwitz is an exhibition that incorporates 100 photographs, sketches and testimonies of the Holocaust and Auschwitz. It examines in detail each image, looks more closely at the individuals in front of and behind the camera lens, and asks searching questions about what each image really reveals. Visitors are confronted by what it means to go beyond the gaze of the perpetrator to gain a better understanding of the reality of Auschwitz, and to reflect on what this means for us today.
