Published to coincide with a major exhibit at the International Center of Photography in New York, Written in Memory is artist Jeff Wolin's unique tribute to the spirit and courage of those who survived the Holocaust. In these penetrating portraits, words of Holocaust survivors are imprinted directly on the images, like numbers tattooed on forearms and pain etched forever in the memory. Faded snapshots of the survivors from decades ago reinforce the idea of remembrance and the power that photographs carry. The women and men pictured here have reached back into a dark place in order to bring an overwhelming and horrific piece of history down to human scale. These images, as well as the stories written on them, are intimate, disturbing, and profoundly moving.

Seller's Description:
Book Oblong quarto, softcover, near fine in white and black pictorial French wraps. Giftable. As the survivors of the Holocaust dwindle rapidly in number, those who can are increasingly making their voices heard--determined to tell their story to a new generation. Jeffrey Wolin has produced a unique tribute to the spirit and courage of those who lived through--and outlived--the horrors of that era. His stark black and white portraits of European Jews in the twilight of their lives are contrasted with snapshots of them in their youth. Like the numbers tattooed on their forearms, like the pain forever etched in their collective consciousness, the chilling stories of the survivors--largely in their own words--are directly imprinted on the images. 96 pp.
