ART IN THE HOLOCAUST Exhibition

Join us in commemorating the 85th anniversary of Kristallnacht through the exhibition Art in the Holocaust. This HKHTC-HKU exhibition, in collaboration with Yad Vashem, provides a glimpse into art created during the Holocaust in ghettos, camps, forests and while in hiding.

The artworks reflect the tension between the artists’ need to document the terrible events they endured and their desire to break free through art, and escape into the realms of beauty, imagination and faith. These artworks, from Yad Vashem’s Art Collection, stand as testimony to the strength of the human spirit that refuses to surrender.

This exhibition takes place between now and December 20 (Opening Hours: Mon-Sat 09:00-21:00) at the HKU Centennial Campus:

5/F, Run Run Shaw Tower, Centennial Campus, The University of Hong Kong

Free admission. All are welcome.
For further information, please contact smlc@hku.hk

This special project is organized along with the University of Hong Kong and in cooperation with Yad Vashem.
