The exhibition "Anne Frank. Holocaust Diaries" is an attempt of bringing memory back to life by remembering not only fears and losses but also dreams and hopes. In the face of stuffiness and absurd restrictions Anne Frank, Hélène Berr, Eva Heyman and other young women write about their first love, flowers and beautiful dresses, about their passion for books and knowledge.

In this crowded space packed with impressions and emotions personal stories engage in an intimate dialogue with contemporary art. Exhibition includes works by famous artists that focus on the Holocaust, nature of violence and personal memory of victims: Anselm Kiefer, Miroslaw Balka, Christian Boltanski, Hermann Nitsch,Haim Sokol, Ori Gersht, Vadim Sidur and Gustav Metzger.
