Exploring Holocaust Legacy in Vienna: A New Exhibition on Generational Trauma
The Jewish Museum in Vienna has launched an exhibition titled “The Third Generation: The Holocaust in Family Memory,” curated by Sabina Apostolo. It examines how the descendants of Holocaust survivors confront their family’s history through artistic expression. Highlights include the work of Dan Glaubach, who interprets familial trauma in his photography. The exhibition emphasizes a shift in narrative, with younger generations actively engaging with their grandparents’ experiences and preserving their legacies, such as getting tattoos of their grandparents’ numbers—an act both provocative and proud.
