JEWISH MUSEUM BERLIN: SHALECHET - FALLEN LEAVES
THE INSTALLATION BELOW IS BY ISRAELI ARTIST, MENASHE KIDISHMAN. HE ALSO HAS A LARGER INSTALLATION AT THE JEWISH MUSEUM IN BERLIN THAT USES THE SAME MATERIALS AND ICONOGRAPHY (BOTTOM PICTURE). IT IS ONE OF THE MOST EMOTIONALLY EVOCATIVE PIECES OF ART I HAVE EVER EXPERIENCED. AS PICTURED BELOW, THE VISITOR IS ENCOURAGED WALK OVER THE HUNDREDS OF IRON FACES ON THE FLOOR. AS I WALKED OVER THE “FACES” OF THE VICTIMS, I WAS COMPLETELY OVERWHELMED BY EMPATHY AND PROFOUND SADNESS. –JASON KRUGMAN
