Hardback. Condizione: New. On September 29 and 30 1941 more than 33,000 Jewish men, women, and children were murdered in Babyn Yar, a gorge near Kiev.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - On September 29 and 30, 1941, more than 33,000 Jewish men, women, and children were murdered in Babyn Yar, a ravine in the Ukrainian capital Kiev. This event constituted the largest single massacre perpetrated by German troops against Jews during World War II. In commemoration, and as an affirmation of a Jewish future, a synagogue designed in the shape of an oversized Jewish prayer book was inaugurated on the same site in May 2021. When opened, the book building's inner space and its furnishings unfold. This impressive movable structure was conceived by architect Manuel Herz and is decorated with murals by Ukrainian artist Galina Andrusenko. The Babyn Yar synagogue's design is rooted in a meditation on Judaism's 3000-year old history. The leitmotif of this consideration, undertaken by historian Robert Jan van Pelt and artist Mark Podwal, is the concept of Jewish Space understood in its territorial, architectural, psychological, theological, intellectual dimensions. It traverses a historical landscape that includes great heights of spiritual aspiration and profound depths of despair, caused by antisemitism and the persecution, massacres, and genocide that resulted from it. The first volume of this lavishly illustrated and thought-provoking book, An Atlas of Jewish Space, offers 134 brief and engaging texts by Robert Jan van Pelt, each of which is illuminated with a drawing by Mark Podwal. The second volume, A Synagogue for Babyn Yar, documents the new building through photographs by celebrated architectural photographer Iwan Baan, as well as through plans and model photos. The images are supplemented with texts by Manuel Herz, Galina Andrusenko, Jean-Louis Cohen, and Marina Otero Verzier and Nick Axel.; Am 29. und 30. September 1941 wurden in Babyn Yar, einer Schlucht bei Kiew, mehr als 33'000 jüdische Männer, Frauen und Kinder ermordet. Es war dies das grösste einzelne Massaker, das deutsche Truppen im Zweiten Weltkrieg an Juden verübten. Zum Andenken daran wird 2021 auf demselben Gelände eine Synagoge eröffnet, die in der Form eines Buchs gestaltet ist. Wird das Buch-Gebäude geöffnet, entfalten sich der Synagogenraum und seine Einrichtung. Dieses eindrückliche bewegliche Bauwerk hat der in Basel und Köln tätige Architekt Manuel Herz entworfen. Das vorliegende englischsprachige Buch zeigt die Synagoge von Babyn Yar in Fotografien des bedeutenden niederländischen Architekturfotografen Iwan Baan, in Konstruktionszeichnungen und Modellen. Der Hauptteil des Buchs erzählt indes die Geschichte der Juden und des Judentums anhand des jüdischen Raums und Raumbegriffs von biblischen Zeiten bis in die Gegenwart. Dabei wird Raum als Leitmotiv ganz breit verstanden: territorial, architektonisch, psychologisch, theologisch, intellektuell sowie die Judenverfolgung betreffend. Diese Geschichte wird nicht in einer abstrakten Abhandlung erzählt, sondern anhand von 134 kurzen, anschaulichen Texten des Holocaustforschers und Architekturprofessors Robert Jan van Pelt. Jede dieser Betrachtungen wird von einer Zeichnung oder einem Aquarell des New Yorker Künstlers Mark Podwal begleitet, der durch seine Illustrationen für Bücher Elie Wiesels bekannt wurde.…
