Truth and Lies Filming in the Terezín Ghetto 1942-1945
From 29. 08. 2013 to 30. 03. 2014
Jewish Museum in Prague – Robert Guttmann Gallery
U Staré školy 3, Prague 1
Film was used by the Third Reich as a powerful tool for controlling public opinion. Two propaganda films were made about the Terezín ghetto during the war. On the basis of the latest findings, this exhibition – prepared by the Jewish Museum in Prague and the National Film Archive – charts the history behind both of these projects. It focuses on the people who initiated the films and describes the conditions for the filming – many prisoners were forced to take part as actors, extras and even as members of the film crew.

Georges Kars (1880–1945) is one of the members of the first generation of Czech modern artists whose work is still not sufficiently well-known or appreciated. These artists sought a new means of expression as well as international recognition, which some of them managed to achieve. Unlike his contemporaries, Kars did not attend the Prague Academy, nor did he take part in their first exhibitions. He found his second home in Paris, which was the centre of the international art world in the first half of the 20th century.

For specialists and the general public alike, the exhibition Baroque Synagogues in the Czech Lands seeks to chart in more detail than ever before a group of lesser-known monuments that uniquely reflect the history and culture of the traditional Jewish communities in this country. Synagogues were the main and, for the most part, the only centre of religious and social life and education for these communities.

In the public’s eye, the Shoah against the Jews of Bohemia and Moravia is associated mainly with the Terezín ghetto and the Auschwitz-Birkenau death camp. Less well known are the deportations of Jewish prisoners to other ghettos (e.g., Riga, Izbica, Zamosc, Rejowiec), forced labour camps (Sawin, Krychów, Ossowa) and concentration camps (Salaspils, Kaiserwald, Maly Trostinets) in the Baltic States (Latvia and Estonia) and the Nazi-occupied territories of Poland and Byelorussia.
