Anne D. Dutlinger

Anne Dutlinger (http://home.moravian.edu/public/art/facultystaff/anneDutlinger.html) produced a work based on an exhibit and symposium for Moravian College in Pennsylvania. Note that the work has a strong balance of text and images. The images were primarily created by children who passed through Theresienstadt before their final transfer to Auschwitz. A key figure in the children's art program was Friedl Dicker.

Dutlinger's work is compelling, not only because of its focus on the Nazi "model show more camp" Theresienstat, but also for its thoughtful presentation of the complex and short life of the prisoners.

As an educational tool or professional resource, I would suggest that this book expands beyond Holocaust and genocide studies. This would also be interesting for those in the museum studies, public history, mental health profession, history, children's issues, and art fields. I certainly give this work top marks for its interdisciplinary reach. show less
