Through Soviet Jewish Eyes: Photography, War and the Holocaust
February 22 – September 7, 2015 Exhibition opening event on February 22 features curator and author David Shneer
A rarely seen perspective of World War II through the lens of the most important Soviet Jewish photojournalists. These photographers were the first liberators to witness Nazi atrocities, three years before Americans arrived at concentration camps like Buchenwald and Dachau.
Based on curator David Shneer’s book, Through Soviet Jewish Eyes, the exhibition explores aspects of what this religious and cultural identity might have meant when confronting war and Nazi persecution through Soviet and Jewish eyes.
