"MIRRORING EVIL: Nazi Imagery/Recent Art"
2002-03-17 until 2002-06-30
Jewish Museum
New York, NY,
USA United States of America
Drawing connections between the imagery of the Third
Reich and today's consumer culture, the artists sharpen our awareness of
present-day techniques of persuasion and symbols of oppression.
Employing the cerebral language of conceptual art, the artists bring
this highly charged imagery out of the past and into the present,
leading us to question how images shape our perception of evil today.
This exhibition is accompanied by
extensive education programs, forums for discussion and a major
publication. At the core of this initiative is a selection of recent
works by thirteen internationally recognized artists who make new and
daring use of imagery taken from the Nazi era.
