I almost didn’t follow the link, thinking, idiotically, that you can’t make art out of the holocaust–as if I made the rules for the world. It’s a very moving post. Thanks.

I’m glad you did. This is one of the reasons I believe art is so important. It can often say things that words cannot.

These are such powerful paintings, Sarah. I think to see the whole exhibition would be a very emotional experience.

The past is never completely gone… and since evil men tend to resurrect our worst moments to glorify them, having the poignant voice of art to remind us all of the need for vigilance is powerful indeed!
