Ich Möchte, Dass Es Mich Etwas Angeht / I Want It to Be My Concern

Actions and texts from the Institute for Language Arts at the University of Applied Arts Vienna, developed for the International Holocaust Remembrance Day, open a literary discourse of remembrance by the fourth generation: strange, unusual, disparate, lost and at the same time characterized by the desire to express themselves with compassion. The writers create unexpected approaches while examining both remembrance and forgetting. An inventory.
