Description

[vorl]The phrase ‘Arbeit Macht Frei’ became a symbolic image of the Holocaust and the camps. It was used by artists to depict the harsh reality of incarceration in the camps, and to engage with the denial of human freedom, due to the prisoners’ opposition to the violent and oppressive regime. This book shows how the ‘Arbeit Macht Frei’ image is depicted, how it is used, and its meaning in connection to Holocaust memory.
