Scope and Contents
This exhibition was co-curated by Alma on Dobbin (N.Y.) and Laura Kruger. The exhibition was done in tribute to 600,000 Hungarian Jews who perished in the Holocaust. Waldsee was a deception by the Nazis as a ficticious place from where postcards of lies describing their happiness as dictated by the Nazis were sent to other Jews but in reality were written before being killed in the gas chambers of Auschwitz. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
