  • Last Folio Yuri Dojc
    LAST FOLIO YURI DOJC L A S T F O L I O Y U R I D O J C 1 Die fotografi sche Reise Last Folio von Yuri Dojc ist nach vielen Stationen in der Welt an der Akademie der bildenden Künste Wien angekommen. Die nunmehrige Station ist die Aula der Akademie mit den 1880 von Anselm Feuerbach gestalteten Deckenbildern des Titanensturzes, ein Ort der geradezu prädestiniert für diese Reise ist. Die Reise hat Yuri Dojc, der in Kanada lebt, in die Slowakei geführt, dort wo er aufgewachsen ist, dort wo er seine Schulzeit verbracht hat, dort wohin er 1968 nach einem Studienaufenthalt in London nicht mehr zurückkehrte. Er kam zurück, um in Bardejow, im Osten der Slowakei, nahe der polnischen Grenze dort in einer Synagoge, in einer verlassenen Schule, shul zu fotografi eren, zu dokumentieren, zu berühren. Dort in Bardejow, wo vor dem Holocaust mehrere tausende Juden und Jüdinnen lebten, wo es ein jüdischen Viertel mit einer Synagoge aus dem 18. Jahrhundert gibt, dort wo Juden und Jüdinnen lebten, dort wo es ein rituelles Badehaus, mikveh, gab, dort wo es koschere Schlachter gab, dort wo es einen jüdischen Friedhof gibt, dort wo am 12. Mai 1942 die Juden und Jüdinnen von den Nationalsozialisten zusammengetrieben wurden, dort wo 3.700 Juden und Jüdinnen in Viehwaggons gedrängt wurden, dort wo sie in die Ghettos und Konzentrationslagern gebracht wurden und die meisten von ihnen ermordet wurden, dort wo sie alles liegen und stehen lassen mussten, dort wo sie die Schule, shul, verlassen mussten, dort wo ihre Bücher in den 2000er Jahren zerfallen, verstaubt, achtlos auf die Böden geworfen zu fi nden sind, dort wo die Bücher auf ihre Leser vergebens warten.

  • Teacher Meaning-Making at a Jewish Heritage Museum David Russell
    Museum-Based Teacher Education: Teacher Meaning-Making at a Jewish Heritage Museum David Russell Goldberg Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2012 © 2012 David Russell Goldberg All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT MUSEUM-BASED TEACHER EDUCATION: TEACHER MEANING-MAKING AT A JEWISH HERITAGE MUSEUM David Russell Goldberg This study answers the question of what meanings teacher-participants make in Holocaust professional development at a Jewish heritage museum in a mandate state. By understanding these meanings, the educational community can better understand how a particular context and approach influences teacher meaning-making and the ways in which museum teacher education programs shape the learning of participants. Meaning- making is a process of interpretation and understanding experiences in ways that make sense to each individual teacher. Meanings that are formed may impact teachers’ pedagogic interpretation of the Holocaust, which may in turn shape their instructional practices. This instrumental case study used multiple interviews, observations, surveys and documents to explore the meanings teachers make about the Holocaust from participation in Holocaust professional development at a Jewish heritage museum. Participants in the study included nine teachers from public schools and private Jewish schools and two professional developers from the Museum. Each participant was interviewed three times, and six different professional development programs were observed over a period of six months. Programs typically lasted from one to six days and included a presentation by museum staff, Holocaust experts, and survivors. At any museum, each representation of the Holocaust conveys particular messages and mediates Holocaust history through a particular lens.

  • The October Club Handicap Stakes Sponsored by Winterflood Securities
    Redburn is proud to support The October Club & WellChild redburn.com Good evening. I’m sorry I can’t be with you tonight, but I did want to thank you for supporting WellChild this evening, a charity which I am very proud to serve as Patron, and one which is very close to my heart. WellChild supports parents of children with complex medical conditions – by helping them to care for their child at home. This is so important to give the whole family a quality of life they deserve. But this is not easy. The reality of caring for your child at home means that thousands of families have to deliver complex medical routines to keep their children safe, every single day. Without the skills and confidence to deliver this care, many families will end up in hospital for months on end. Too many others will hit crisis point. This is why your support is so important. Money raised by The October Club will help to establish a network of WellChild Better At Home Training Units across the UK. These training units will give parents across the country a place to learn; a place to acquire the skills and confidence to care for their children safely at home. This will make a big impact on thousands of lives. And so, on behalf of the many families you will be helping for years into the future – Thank you. I hope you have a wonderful evening. Citadel Global Equities is a proud supporter of The October Club citadel.com N BEHALF of The October Club Committee, a great introduction for the WellChild team and I am delighted to welcome you to this, our provided an update from MS Trust on their progress O31st Dinner.

    GALERIE KARSTEN GREVE "Flying letters" book fragment, 2013 (Bardejov), tirage d’archive à encre pigmentaire sur papier coton, 31 1/2 x 47 1/4 in, Ed.. 1/8 YURI DOJC Last Folio From January 28th to February 28th, 2017 Opening on Saturday January 28th form 6 to 8 PM The Galerie Karsten Greve is pleased to present, for the first time in France, the project of the Czechoslovakian-born artist and photographer Yuri Dojc, Last Folio: A Photographic Journey with Yuri Dojc. Serendipity led him, his producer Katya Krausova and their documentary film team to an abandoned Jewish school in Eastern Slovakia, where time had stood still since the day in 1942 when all those attending it were deported to the concentration camps…the school books were there still, essay notebooks with corrections, school reports, birth certificates, school accounts, even sugar still in the kitchen cupboard… all decaying on dusty shelves, the final witnesses to a once thriving culture. These abandoned, disintegrating books are treated by Yuri Dojc like the survivors that they each are - every one captured as a portrait, preserved in their final beauty, pictures speaking a thousand words. Now, years later, his own search, which started with portraits of survivors following his father's death, is transformed into a remarkable photographic narrative. Amongst these many hundreds of books and fragments photographed by Dojc, one stands out especially - one which miraculously found its way from a dusty pile to its rightful heir - a book once owned by Dojc’s grandfather Jakab. Dojc, encountered a Holocaust survivor at his father’s funeral in 1997.
