In Memoriam
This installation represents the racial policy of the Nuremberg Race Laws in adopted in 1935 for the Protection of German Blood and German Honour, which isolated German Jews from the rest of the population, stripping them of their citizenship, segregating them as lesser members of society, with no natural rights. These racial regulations inevitably paved the way to the events of Kristallnacht three years later.
