Faces of the Holocaust is an exhibit conceived in the hope of perpetuating awareness about the
horrors of the Holocaust by means of photo-essays. Many of the photographs used in the exhibition
have never before been on public display. To complement these images, other previously published
photographs have been included. The dates and locations of all of the images are correct to the best
of the artist’s knowledge. It should be remembered that prior to liberation almost all photographs of
the Holocaust prior were taken by the murderers themselves. These photographs give us only a
small idea of the bestial brutality and the immense scale of the slaughter and suffering.
Photodigitography, or photographic digital imaging, is a name coined by the artist in 1993 to
describe a technology/art-form in which the artist transforms photographs using computer
programs, many written by him, for image enhancement. All of the images in this exhibit were printed in 1996 on Somerset Textured Archival 300#
watercolor paper by the Iris Print Department of Speed Graphics, Inc., New York. |
