"MIRRORING EVIL: Nazi Imagery/Recent Art"
2002-03-17 until 2002-06-30
Jewish Museum
New York, NY, USA United States of America

Drawing connections between the imagery of the Third Reich and today's consumer culture, the artists sharpen our awareness of present-day techniques of persuasion and symbols of oppression. Employing the cerebral language of conceptual art, the artists bring this highly charged imagery out of the past and into the present, leading us to question how images shape our perception of evil today.

This exhibition is accompanied by extensive education programs, forums for discussion and a major publication. At the core of this initiative is a selection of recent works by thirteen internationally recognized artists who make new and daring use of imagery taken from the Nazi era.
