On Wednesday, March 25th at 17:00, a one-time exhibition event will take place at the Galicia Jewish Museum as part of the all-Polish project titled “Traces of Oblivion”, conducted by the Cosinus network of art high schools from Krakow, Katowice, Warsaw, and Wrocław.
This event was organized as an art dialogue of the students with the Galicia Jewish Museum temporary exhibition “Unimaginable. The Void After the Great Synagogues”. The drawings and paintings which were created by the students were based on archival photographs which documented the perished synagogues. Each creation is a personal artistic attempt to “bring back” the buildings which disappeared from the landscape of Polish cities and towns – disappeared together with the important history of local communities.
A highlight of the event will be a presentation of the Łódź Synagogue in the form of a model created using 3D printing technology by students from the Cosinus Fine Arts High School in Krakow. Multimedia presentations combining modern technologies with historical education and visual narrative will complement the event. A concert will accompany the event, complementing the reflective nature of the meeting.
