Description

The Nazi Drawings by Mauricio Lasansky is a powerful series of drawings that reflect the artist's response to the atrocities of the Holocaust. Created in the 1960s, these monumental works of art examine the horrors of the Holocaust, particularly the suffering of women and children. In Envisioning Evil, curator Rachel McGarry provides comprehensive context for the artist and his work, tracing the evolution of Holocaust awareness before and after the 1961 Eichmann trial. The book also explores the role of art, literature, and popular media in bringing the genocide into public discourse. Through three essays and an illustrated timeline, McGarry sheds light on Lasansky's life, art, and the international religious response to revelations about Nazi crimes. A thought-provoking study that continues to condemn persecution and extermination of humanity, The Nazi Drawings endure as a testament to the artist's enduring message.
