Children of the Holocaust

Sunday 25 January 2004

This one-day conference brought together (art)historians and literature scholars working on various aspects of Children of the Holocaust to celebrate the first-ever showing in Britain of the pictorial autobiography of the Buchenwald-survivor Thomas Geve. An exhibition of Geve’s drawings and the screening of the film Nothing but Life directed by Wilhelm Rösing complemented the event.
