Erieta Attali über das Felix-Nussbaum-Haus

Zusatztext

The life and art of Felix Nussbaum, the architectural language of Daniel Libeskind, the photographs of Erieta Attalithree voices, three narratives, brought together in an impressive photo book. Photographer Erieta Attali has succeeded in capturing the various references inside and outside the Felix Nussbaum House in Osnabrück, the complex interplay of architecture, museum and exhibition spaces, and the paintings of German-Jewish painter Felix Nussbaum (1904-1944) presented therein with her photographs. Attali's view is not documentary, but rather the subjective view of a visual poet who, in keeping with the subtitle of the publication, explores the resistance in both Nussbaum's paintings and Libeskind's architecture. The Felix Nussbaum House was Libeskind's first completed building in 1998, and with its provocative, unconventional design, it continues to defy visitors' usual expectations of a museum building. This book is intended to arouse curiosity: about Nussbaum's paintings and life, about the building that bears his name. And, in keeping with the wishes of the museum's sponsors, it aims to keep his memory alive. The cover in the shape of an N is a reference to the name of the painter who was murdered in Auschwitz.
