When Viewing The Following Images, Consider the Following
Questions…
• Why did the victims create this art?– What did it accomplish?– Why the risk?
• Why is it important to see this art?– How do we talk about this art?– What does it show us?

“…painting is designed as a mediator between us and the world around it and
it is not necessarily an aesthetic operation, but a way of acquiring power and giving concrete form to our fears,
hopes, and wishes.”--Picasso
![Page 4: FSU Holocaust Institute for Educators Cynthia Edelman Art History Opening Lecture Drawing Strength: The Art of the Holocaust Dr. David Gussak Asst. Professor,](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062805/5697c0041a28abf838cc4a13/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
The following images are in many locations, including the Terezin Ghetto Museum, the Auschwitz Museum and private collections
(By no means is this an exhaustive collection—there are many more art pieces that have been discovered, but space and time does not permit full exploration…)
![Page 5: FSU Holocaust Institute for Educators Cynthia Edelman Art History Opening Lecture Drawing Strength: The Art of the Holocaust Dr. David Gussak Asst. Professor,](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062805/5697c0041a28abf838cc4a13/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
The images for this presentation have been borrowed from various public domain internet sites that focus on the art of the Holocaust as well as several publications. These images will be used to provide background and discussion points forthe program session.
These sites will be listed in the last several slides.

A page from the book, focused on “How Jewish Traders Cheat”
Caption: Farming woman, have I got something special for you today. Look at this material! You can make a dress from it that will make you look like a baroness, like a countess, like a queen..."

Many times the artists were called to create pieces to be posted around the camp to promote sanitation and health, like these two; a joke, as the camp itself was extremely unhealthy…

Friedl Dicker-Brandeis (1898-1944)
Known as an art therapist by many, Friedl Dicker-Brandeis developed exercises that encouraged creativity and had a healing effect.
