Description
Zemel traces how immediate post-Holocaust representation transforms memory fragments into narratives and how visual means such as space, scale, colour etc. are employed to this end Through close readings of drawings by Thomas Greve, David Olere and Alfred Kantor, Zemel discovers three distinct strategies of aestheticizing trauma in the survivors' visual narratives
