Scope and Contents
Skillfully cut, glued together, styrofoam Hebrew letters are stacked one on top of another in a random, pyramid shape. The letters may be a metaphor for victims of the Holocaust. The glass box could represent Kristelnacht, when the Nazis destroyed the glass windows of Jewish shops and burned Jewish books. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
