Description
Sites Unseen is a collection of six moving photography and public art projects from different European cities merging images of the Holocaust with present-day scenes and places by well-known photographer and installation artist Shimon Attie. The work documents, in photographs, Attie's series of installation art projects which were done in Europe from 1991-1996. Using a variety of media, from on-location slide projection in Berlin's former Jewish quarter to underwater light boxes in a Copenhagen canal, his hauntingly beautiful installations reanimate sites with images of their own lost histories of the Holocaust and World War II.
