Opening Reception | Fragments: Jewish Life in Central and Eastern Europe 1981 to 2007: The Post-War Photography of Yale Strom


Fragments is an exhibit of 36 photographs and sheet music that explore the Post-War traditions of Central and Eastern Europe’s remaining Jewish communities. The project began over thirty years ago, when Strom visited Eastern Europe and saw Jews living in small towns and villages reminiscent of the pre-War “shtetl” made famous by Chagall’s paintings and Roman Vishniac’s iconic photographs. In these communities, he found the remnants of orthodox or Hasidic worlds, alongside Jews who were still devoted communists and some who just wanted better lives for their children and grandchildren.
