Project description
1) “Peter Eisenman: Building Germany’s Holocaust Memorial”
2) YouTube: Emmaly Reed Holocaust survivor (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KXwRcsVO5TY)
1- Compare this memorial with those established more recently for the Roma/Sinti(Gypsies) and the Lesbians/gays. They are also found in Berlin but are on a much more modest scale. You’ll need to check the internet for the information on them. is it a good idea to have separate memorials for each group or should there have been just one for all affected groups?
2- Do you think the “Ort” (underground place of information) was a good idea? Why, why not?
3- Officially, the memorial is for the “murdered Jews of Europe”. Technically, wouldn’t that exclude concentration camps Jews who died of old age or disease? What would be a better title?
4- Why do we have a Holocaust Museum in Washington, D.C. but no national monument for the victims of slavery and genocide in this country (US)?
5- What do you make of Emmaly Reed, the self-proclaimed Dachau Holocaust survivor?
