Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945), in art
The book contains 11 etchings, 33 silver gelatin prints, and 4 essays which question how people born after World War II have been affected by the Holocaust through an investigation of the histories of two South-German cities, Buttenhausen and Grafeneck. These histories are interpreted by the artist, a journalist, and a historian in order to speak about the authenticity of the past and the power of collective memories. Etchings were printed on Twinrock paper by John Gtreco at Josephine Press in Santa Monica, California. Text was printed with Helvetica tupe on a Vandercook letterpress by Kathryn Clark at Twinrocker. The photographs are printed on Ilford paper. The edition, each containing a unique bronze sculpture embedded in the box cover, consists of 10 copies and 1 artist's proof. This book is numbered 7 of 10.
