Sites Unseen is a collection of six moving photography and public art projects from different European cities merging images of the Holocaust with the present day scenes and places by photographer and installation artist Simon Attie. It is the companion to an art exhibit of the same name that will be opening in Boston at the Institute of Contemporary Art on November 10.
Using
a variety of media, from on-location slide projection in Berlin’s
former Jewish quarter to underwater light boxes in a Copenhagen canal,
Attie’s installation art reanimate sites with images of their own
lost histories of the Holocaust and World War II. It is Attie’s own
photographs of his work that make up the book.
