In cooperation with the Museum of Holocaust in Sere\u010f, we invite you to the finishing of the exhibition:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“MEMORY AS A REFERENCE. CRITICAL CONTEXTS OF THE SLOVAK STATE IN CONTEMPORARY VISUAL ART.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On September 7 at 11:00 a.m., at Museum of Holocaust in Sere\u010f will commemorate the Memorial Day for the Victims of the Holocaust and Racial Violence. We will do so together with Holocaust survivors and the President of the Slovak Republic, Zuzana \u010caputov\u00e1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The exhibition will be accompanied by the curator of the exhibition Bohunka Koklesov\u00e1 and Sandra Polovkov\u00e1, director of Post Bellum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The authors of the exhibited visual artworks: Daniela Kraj\u010dov\u00e1, Kl\u00e1ra Kus\u00e1, Zorka Ledn\u00e1rov\u00e1, Marcel Mali\u0161, Mat\u00fa\u0161 Ma\u0165\u00e1tko and Filip Sabol, Erika Mesz\u00e1rosov\u00e1 used memory as a reference in their work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMost of the presented authors at the exhibition are devoted to individual studies of authoritarian regimes, totalitarian propaganda, visual culture of the time, as well as oral history mapping the impact of political decisions on specific human lives. The authors are looking for proxy themes in the tangle of historical layers that have the potential to create a context with the current political and social situation,\u201d
explains the curator of exhibition, Bohunka Koklesov\u00e1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Holocaust did not happen overnight. It was preceded by a crisis in society after the First World War, which opened up the space for populism, political phrases in the form of simple solutions. A regime in which not only democracy but also freedoms and human rights were completely lost came to power through a democratic path. We tell the facts of great history in the exhibition in the historical development of events. And how did the small ones affect the lives of ordinary people? We approach them through the short films Post Bellum and The Norwegian Center for Holocaust and Minority Studies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
