Auschwitz and Auschwitz-Birkenau are the two most famous and most visited genocidal sites in the world, but they do not encompass the whole of the Auschwitz complex. Jason Francisco’s photo-text-installation work examines a part of the Auschwitz story all but erased from public memory, through a deliberate misuse of the historical practice of stereoscopy.
Housed next to the site of a pre-war Yiddish theater, Trzecie Oko Gallery specializes in fine-art photography. In the past, Trzecie Oko has hosted FestivALT shows Greetings from Płaszów and Into Jewish Krakow. This year’s exhibition addresses the difficulty in commemorating an often-overlooked site of violence and the particular pitfalls of public memory.
