This comprehensive book delves into the multifaceted realm of Holocaust memorialization culture, exploring its performative dimension through a diverse range of artistic, educational, and memorial projects. Performative practice encompasses the participatory and performance-oriented aspects of this culture, emphasizing its transformative potential and its profound impact on visitors.
