Die Ausstellung in Venedig bewegte auch eine schwedische Familie

Die Familie Vitella Calvert war überrascht, als sie am 14. Juli als 50.000 Besucherin in der Ausstellung „Life with the dead“ in der Scuola Grande San Giovanni Evangelista begrüßt wurde. Seit dem 17. April zeigen das Zentrum für verfolgte Künste und die Boris Lurie Art Foundation das Werk des Künstlers und Holocaust-Überlebenden Boris Lurie in Venedig. Schon in der ersten Woche zeichnete sich das große Interesse mit teils vierstelligen Besucherzahlen pro Tag ab. Auch in der Fachpresse findet die Schau viel Beachtung.

Direktor Dr. Jürgen Kaumkötter war anwesend, als die runde Besucherzahl näher rückte und schließlich eine schwedische Familie die Marke riss. „Wir wollten nicht zu viel Brimborium darum machen, aber einen Katalog und auch die Boris-Lurie-Taschen haben sie bekommen und sich sehr darüber gefreut.“ Wer jetzt genau der 50.000 Besucher ist, konnte sich die Familie um Era Vitella, Astrid Vitella Calvert und Ulf Calvert selbst aussuchen.

Am meisten waren die drei Gäste davon beeindruckt, dass so viele Menschen die Ausstellung besuchen. „Wir haben uns dann noch mit weiteren Besuchern zusammen über die Relevanz von Boris Luries Kunst für heute unterhalten. Das war wirklich sehr bewegend.“

Nur vier Tage später, am 18. Juli, wäre Boris Lurie 100 Jahre alt geworden. Den runden Geburtstag hatte die Boris Lurie Art Foundation zum Anlass genommen, seine Kunst parallel zur 60. Biennale in Venedig zu zeigen und in Erinnerung zu rufen. Rafael Vostel, Europa-Repräsentant der New Yorker Stiftung, fiel die Wahl eines geeigneten Kooperationspartners nicht schwer: Das Zentrum für verfolgte Künste arbeite sehr erfolgreich in Sachen Erinnerungskultur und Kampf gegen Antisemitismus sowie gegen die Feinde der Demokratie. „Es wird bundesweit und sogar bis in die USA gehört.“

Über das Werk Luries sagt Dr. Jürgen Kaumkötter: „Durch seine Kunst hat Boris Lurie die Schrecken des Holocaust und die Heuchelei der Nachkriegszeit mit unerschütterlicher Ehrlichkeit enthüllt und der Welt einen unvergänglichen Spiegel vorgehalten.“

Die Ausstellung ist noch bis zum 24. November zu sehen. Bis dahin hoffen die Ausstellungsmacher auch einen 100.000 Besucher begrüßen zu können.

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
