The Ann Loeb Bronfman Gallery Presents
Traces of Memory: A Contemporary Look
at the Jewish Past in Poland
April 19 – May 21

The exhibition features photographs by the late British photojournalist Chris Schwarz and research and texts by Prof. Jonathan Weber (UNESCO Chair of Jewish and Interfaith Studies, University of Birmingham, UK). Over a period of twelve years, they worked together to gather material that offers a completely new way of looking at the Jewish past that was destroyed in Poland. The exhibition pieces together a picture of the relics of Jewish life and culture in Polish Galicia that can still be seen today, interpreting these traces in a manner which is informative, accesible, and thought-provoking.
Exhibition on loan from the Galicia Jewish Museum with support from the Taube Foundation for Jewish Life and Culture
Co-sponsored by the Embassy of the Republic of Poland
