SUMMARY:Material Witness: A Mixed Media Exhibition/Discussion - Exploring my mother's experience during the Holocaust and the parallels immigrants are living through today.
DESCRIPTION:Through Nancy Marks’ art and poetry\, Material Witness confronts the chilling parallels between her mothers’s hiding in France in the 1940s and the realities faced by immigrants today. The echoes between the 1940s and our contemporary world are undeniable and demand witness. This mixed-media installation\, which premiered in Boston in 2025\,  features twenty-five drypoint prints and original poems. The images invite viewers to see them through a dual lens: ‘then’ and ‘now.’ What befell Jews\, Roma\, leftists\, and so many others targeted in that era resonates starkly with the experiences of immigrants navigating hostile systems and rhetoric today. Material Witness presents interwoven histories\, holding the pain of the past alongside the urgencies of the present.  \nViewing of the exhibit will be accompanied by a discussion with the artist. Drinks and snacks will be provided. \nThis event is being sponsored by the Jewish Muslim Solidarity Committee\, the Immigrant Justice Committee\, the Israel Palestine Committee\, and the Yiddish Committee.
