Finding meaning in remembering

As a teacher, I have become to value teaching reverence, memories, honoring, and remembering. Actually most of my teaching over the years has been teaching the importance of artists, cultures, peoples, traditions and the value of them. Teaching meaning through art has been my mantra. More importantly, as generations change, what is meaningful to them. Is it important to remember? but really is remembrance important to today and in our future? How do we as artists show the value of remembering?

Esther Nisenthal Krinitz:

Inspired by the art and story of Holocaust survivor Esther Nisenthal Krinitz, Art and Remembrance uses art and personal narrative to recognize individual courage and resilience, and to foster understanding and compassion for those who experience injustice.
