Jewish life has been a matter of course in Germany for over 1700 years. It is part of the local culture and thus enriches the complexity of society.
But it is also part of the story that Jewish life was repeatedly suppressed, that there was violence against Jewish communities and fellow citizens, even to the point of trying to destroy Jewish life throughout Europe. The Holocaust left empty spaces. Voids that go far beyond the incomprehensible loss of each individual. Gaps in our culture, in our society.
As part of the year of peace 2023 the 4-channel-installation will be presented at the Bonnuskirche Osnabrück.
Opening on sunday, 28.05.23
Obere Martinistraße 54, 49078 Osnabrück

Which countries do we dream of?
How do our experiences, our professions and origins shape our answers?
