Description
The article treats the work of Arie Galles who historicises and remembers the Holocaust through the miming of none other than the Nazi's own lurid documentation: aerial reconnaissance photographs of the extermination camps. Galles's Fourteen Stations is a large scale installation that includes fifteen drawings mounted and numbered from right to left according to the Hebrew alphabet.
