Museums and the Remembrance of the Shoah
@ Goethe-Institut Chicago
150 N. Michigan Ave, Suite 420, Chicago, IL 60601
Opening Thursday, December 12th, at 6PM
How is the Shoah addressed in museums? How do museums extend the representation and education of this singular rupture in the history of humankind to other genocides? What can be understood as universal lesson from the Shoah, and what consequences need to be drawn from it when it comes to the question of solidarity?
Please join us for a discussion between historian and philosopher Dr. Leora Auslander, Chair of the Department of Race, Diaspora and Indigeneity at the University of Chicago, and literary critic Dr. Mirjam Wenzel, director of the Jewish Museum Frankfurt am Main, Germany.
