Description

Stephen Shore's powerful portraits offer a haunting visual record of Ukraine's Holocaust survivors. In 2012 and 2013, Shore traveled to visit 35 survivors, mostly women, capturing their stories through quotidian details in his photographs. The book presents 200 digital color photographs that explore the collective experience of these individuals, while maintaining the formal order characteristic of Shore's photography. An accompanying essay by Jane Kramer provides historical context for the survivors' stories, situating them within Ukraine's modern history and the place of Jews within it. This collection sits between Shore's earlier work and the tradition of photographers using their cameras as witnesses to conflict and other historic events.
