Avella Bagur - Face FS Farglivert

Artist avella bagur we talked about here several times for his disturbing works, This time exploring the painful memory of Auschwitz Birkenau. Taking as a basis the award of a Sonderkommando (of Zalmen Gradowski): "Our tears were frozen" (hence the title of the exhibition: Face FS Farglivert = Frozen in Yiddish).

The artist has created sculptures of large format staged steeped in contemplation and monumentality. The first exhibition of his works was in a Templar castle in the South of France. The ambience of the place, as well as work lights intended by the artist gave to the works, power and visual efficiency.

Here are a few views of the exhibition :
