Bruno Schulz (1892-1942): An Artist, a Murder, and the Hijacking of History
Hosted By: The Fritz Ascher Society for Persecuted, Ostracized and Banned Art
Benjamin Balint, an award-winning author, and Georgetown University professor Ori Z Soltes come together to discuss the life and work of Bruno Schulz, renowned as a master of twentieth-century imaginative fiction and a talented graphic artist. Balint’s research follows Schulz’s artistic path, including murals he created for an SS officer and their subsequent rediscovery and controversial transfer to Jerusalem. This event is part of the “Flight or Fight. Stories of Artists Under Repression” series organized by the Fritz Ascher Society for Persecuted, Ostracized, and Banned Art, examining the challenges of curating and interpreting orphaned artworks.
