SUMMARY:Stories Survive: Ivan Vamos
DESCRIPTION:Ivan Vamos was born in March 1938 in Budapest\, Hungary\, nearly the same day that German troops marched into neighboring Austria. After Ivan’s father was killed and his grandfather was badly beaten\, his mother\, who was a professional photographer\, arranged false papers for Ivan and herself and took him into hiding in the Hungarian countryside. A year later\, she and Ivan walked back to Budapest and found refuge in a crowded apartment—a “protected house” like those established by Raoul Wallenberg. When German forces occupied Hungary\, Ivan and his mother escaped once again—this time to a bombed-out apartment house in Budapest\, where they hid in smoldering ruins until liberation in 1945. After emigrating to the United States in 1947\, Ivan led a successful career in public service\, including serving as Deputy Commissioner for Planning and Development at the New York State Office of Parks\, Recreation\, and Historic Preservation. In this Stories Survive program\, Ivan will share his remarkable story of surviving the Holocaust in Hungary and the lessons he takes from this dark chapter of his childhood.

Get a behind-the-scenes look at the artistic process at Open Studios with LMCC’s 2021 Arts Center artists-in-residence.

SUMMARY:Claude Lanzmann’s “SHOAH”
DESCRIPTION:Over a decade in the making\, Claude Lanzmann’s nine-and-a-half-hour film SHOAH is a monumental investigation of the unthinkable: the murder of more than six million Jews by the Nazis. Using no archival footage\, Lanzmann instead focuses on first-person testimonies—of survivors\, former Nazis\, and other witnesses. The intellectual yet emotionally overwhelming SHOAH is not a film about excavating the past but an intensive portrait of the ways in which the past is always present\, and it is inarguably one of the most important cinematic works of all time. When SHOAH premiered on PBS over four nights in 1987\, it inspired Americans to explore dark truths of the Holocaust that had long been avoided. Watch the trailer here. Attend the first in-person screening of SHOAH held anywhere in almost a decade. The film will be split into four parts and screened over a period of two weeks in the Museum’s newly-renovated theater\, Edmond J. Safra Hall. Check the website for times.
