Exhibition “The Future of Remembrance – From Raid to Auschwitz”
July 1, 2022 - July 17, 2022
A culture of remembrance can be abused to inflame nationalism and perpetuate fear and hatred. A true, sincere and courageous culture of remembrance deals with the past in a way that reverently preserves the memory of victims, but at the same time promotes civil and human rights, pluralism and critical thinking, i.e., those democratic and social values that these terrible crimes of the past warn that we, both as a society and as individuals, are personally responsible to actively nurture, strengthen and defend.
The exhibition “The Future of Remembrance – From Raid to Auschwitz” on one hand speaks of the common culture of remembrance, one that is nurtured as a civilization value from Norwegian Falstad to New Haven, USA, from the Auschwitz Memorial Museum and Arolsen Archives in Germany to The Holocaust Museum in Budapest, and many other places around the world, where young people learn with reverence and respect about the suffering of Jews and Serbs in the Novi Sad Raid or the fate of Serbian peasants from Kozara.
On the other hand, the exhibition raises the question of our responsibility to shape and nurture our own culture of remembrance. Are we also part of the history of our city?
Venue: Quay of the raid victims
