SUMMARY:Unimaginable: The Void after the Great Synagogues
DESCRIPTION:The exhibition is dedicated to the — destroyed — monumental synagogues built mostly in the 19th and early 20th centuries\, in a variety of styles ranging from Neo-Gothic to Moorish. The exhibition draws attention to the scale of destruction of pre-war monuments of sacred architecture. The reasons for the annihilation of these remarkable buildings were hatred and violence — hatred toward everything Jewish\, and violence against people and their material culture. Destroyed and — from today’s perspective — unimaginable\, these beautiful\, monumental synagogues were never rebuilt after World War II. \nBringing together examples from 13 cities across Poland\, the exhibition serves both as a commemoration and as an act of education about a heritage lost forever. Opening the exhibition on the 86th anniversary of the burning of the Great Synagogue in Oświęcim — an event that took place on the night of November 29–30\, 1939 — was a deliberate gesture shifting the focus from the date of violence to an act of remembrance.
