This work of art can be found in the city of Vienna (Austria). From afar it looks just like a funny LED lantern but when approached and looked at from below it unveils its meaning. On the occasion of the Commemorative Year 2018, the Jewish Museum Vienna reminded of the synagogues destroyed in November 1938. As part of the project “OT” (אות in ivrith), light sculptures, illustrating a deformed Star of David placed on a 17 feet tall pole, were installed at 25 venues in 16 districts. Information about the different locations comes along with QR codes, which bring the synagogues back to life in a visualized form. |
