2016

(Donald Snyder: The Forward, 29.4.2016) Controversy has reignited over plans for a memorial in the Warsaw Ghetto honoring non-Jewish Poles who saved Jews during the Holocaust following an Israeli sculptor’s apparent acceptance of a commission to design the project.

(Konstanty Gebert: Political Critique, 27.2.2016) I have read, with growing astonishment and disappointment, the article by Gabu Heindl and Eduard Freudmann, on the vicissitudes of their participation in the competition ‘From Those You Saved’ which took place in Warsaw last year.

(Donald Snyder: The Forward, 26.2.2016) In a February 22 email to the New York philanthropist funding the project, sculptor Dani Karavan said he would not accept a commission to create the memorial unless two sculptors who won an earlier public competition for the commission withdrew willingly and “do not have further complaints or reservations.”
