A JOURNEY TO LITHUANIA
Encountering my Landslayt
אין דער אלטער היים
Susan Storring
A journey to Lithuania in search of my mother’s shtetl sparked my interest in getting to know the young people who live there today. Through developing a relationship with the local school, a journey which began in great trepidation has led to surprising encounters with Lithuanians and with the Lithuania of today. The story of this relationship suggests that such friendship projects can begin to heal the deep wounds which exist between Litvaks and Lithuania, with benefits for both sides.
May 9 @ 6:30 pm – 8:00 pm
Join Ben Uri Gallery at Belsize Synagogue for a discussion with distinguished Historian and Author Jonathan Petropoulos on his new book Artists under Hitler following a private viewing of the seminal film ‘Art and Politics in the Weimar’ directed by Ron Orders.
This event complements our current exhibition Refugees: The Lives of Others featuring German artists whose work was classified as ‘degenerate’ and were not permitted to practice such as Hans Feibusch and Ludwig Meidner.
3rd Generation: what has been your experience growing up as the grandchild of a survivor? What has it been like to carry this legacy? There is an experiential weekend workshop being held over 2 days which will use creative approaches including psychodrama to explore the inheritance of your family of origin, enabling a more conscious journey on your own unique path.
Sat 3rd to Sun 4th March, 10am to 5pm in London. There are 3 places remaining.
