Kelly Scott from The National Holocaust Museum talks about Eye as Witness: Recording The Holocaust.
From 2nd to 13th December LCI has been hosting a new exhibition, co-produced by the National Holocaust Centre and Museum and academics from the University of Nottingham that enables us to take a fresh look at the perspective of history offered to us by photography. It includes visual testimony of Jewish people and members of the anti-Nazi resistance from inside the camps as well as artwork created by award-winning international artist Lina Selander.
