Beschreibung:
Samuel Bak has had solo exhibitions at private galleries in New York, Boston, London, Paris, Berlin, Munich, Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, Zurich, and Rome. Publications of his work include eleven books, most notably Between Worlds, and his memoir, Painted in Words. He has also been the subject of two documentary films. He lives in Weston, MA, with his wife, Josee. Lawrence L. Langer is professor emeritus of English at Simmons College. His books include The Holocaust and the Literary Imagination, Holocaust Testimonies and The Ruins of Memory, and Art from the Asbes: A Holocaust Anthology. He and his wife live in West Newton, Ma.
Bak's journey was marked by memories and profound sadness and an awareness of his responsibility to express the spirits of all who were destroyed during the Holocaust. This book aims to pay tribute to the artist's return to his birthplace, to the place of his childhood; to streets of his tenuous survival during World War II.
