SUMMARY:Štěpán Bartoš – Unsichtbare Synagogen
DESCRIPTION:On 27 January 1945\, the concentration and extermination camp A
 uschwitz-Birkenau was liberated by the Red Army. Since 2006\, the victims 
 of the crimes of National Socialist Germany have been commemorated worldwi
 de on this day. As a contribution to the municipal commemoration in Zittau
 \, the Hillersche Villa\, in cooperation with Kultur Aktiv\, will open an 
 exhibition by the artist Štěpán Bartoš\, which shows "disappeared" syn
 agogues in the Czech Republic\, on the eve of the event at Café Jolesch w
 ith a musical and content-related accompanying programme. The exhibition c
 an be visited during the opening hours of Café Jolesch until 31.03.2023.\
 nInvisible synagogues\nA photographic project by Štěpán Bartoš about t
 he Jewish places of worship in Bohemia that disappeared during the Protect
 orate period\, the post-war period 1945-1948 and the long period of commun
 ist totalitarianism until 1989.\n\nOf the numerous synagogues that once st
 ood in what is now the Czech Republic\, a large number have disappeared fr
 om the face of the earth since the 1940s. The number of places of assembly
  of Jewish communities permanently decreased due to looting\, disinterest 
 and conversions both during nationalism and communism. In areas where the 
 German inhabitants were expelled and the original Jewish communities gave 
 in\, entire urban units were redeveloped and converted.  The history of t
 he buildings from this location was forgotten\, but the photographer Ště
 pán Bartoš\, who works in Pardubice\, visited over 150 former synagogue 
 sites and recorded the gaps photographically.\n\nFor the exhibits\, the su
 rface of the photographs is mechanically or thermally processed to suggest
  the outlines of the synagogues that previously stood there. The works hav
 e already been shown in several places in the Czech Republic and Germany. 
 In addition\, the website unsichtbaresynagogen.eu shows all the places vis
 ited.\n\n&nbsp\;\n\n
