The Grunwald Gallery of Art will be exhibiting the work of photographer and IU Press author Yuri Dojc in a display entitled Last Folio: A Photographic Journey with Yuri Dojc. This exhibition will be on view Friday, September 2 through Saturday, October 1, 2011.
Accompanying the exhibit will be Dojc's book, Last Folio: Textures of Jewish Life in Slovakia. The book includes portraits of aging Slovak Holocaust survivors and images
of the poignant ruins of schools, synagogues, mikvahs, and cemeteries. With texts by Lucia Faltin, Katya Krausova, David G. Marwell, and Azar Nafisi, Last Folio presents a stirring tribute to a vanished culture.
Last Folio is the inaugural exhibition for the Grunwald Gallery and is made possible by a gift in memory of John Grunwald by Rita Grunwald.
