The Inheritance

The Holocaust in the Artworks of Second Generation Israeli Artists

Synopsis
The book presents an innovative research on the Holocaust in 'Second Generation' Israeli artists' artworks. The Israeli uniqueness is clearly reflected in their artworks influenced by the cultural-educational connection of the subject of the Holocaust in Israel as well as by the link to significant events in Israeli history. The book explores a wide variety of topics and questions that occupied the artists and presents various ways they chose to express the workings of their inner world, effected by their parents' experiences during the Holocaust.
