Visual-Emotional Stamps: Poland Post WWII
Visual-Emotional Stamps: Poland Post WWII
ART EXHIBIT
Join us for a unique presentation of images and a discussion by the artist, Dr. Gerardo Canul. Wine and cheese will be served.
“Warsaw, Poland, is a place I have often thought about ever since I read a book about a young boy migrating from Eastern Europe to New York following World War II. While I could empathize with his process of adaption into the American culture I had no direct experience with being persecuted or with my family being annihilated.
The photographs serve as a testimony of my being present at the various towns, cities, synagogues, and sites of perishment. The images are the visual-emotional stamps of my bodily reaction to seeing, touching, and hearing the past and present. I had to let go of the Poland I had imagined and submit to my senses. In letting go I felt indescribable grief, profound sadness, and, yet hope at the same time.”
