Description: |
The Holocaust Memorial & Tolerance Center of Nassau County (HMTC) presents the unveiling of an extraordinary permanent sculpture installation crafted from sterling silver and bronze, "Tears of the Holocaust," by acclaimed silver artist Michael Izrael Galmer, at a reception on Sunday, May 21, 2017.
"Tears of the Holocaust" presents a new philosophic view of the Holocaust as the ultimate testament to the resiliency of the human spirit. The sculpture affirms that evil exists, but unlike other artistic expressions of the Holocaust which feature scenes of horror, the artist seeks to convey a strong, reverential story. Mr. Galmer said, "My message is that ultimately evil cannot defeat the indomitable human spirit. The sculpture is meant to defy evil with a beautiful, strong message." Space is limited, RSVP in advance is required. |
