Regarding the Pain of others

Moderated Dr. David G. Marwell, Museum director, with Clifford Chanin,
senior program advisor, National September 11 Memorial and Museum; Leora
Kahn, curator/activist; Svetlana Mintcheva, director, Arts Program,
National Coalition Against Censorship; and Sydney Schanberg, war
correspondent

Does the representation of atrocity provoke dissent, engender
compassion, or merely elicit a momentary shudder before it is forgotten?
Inspired by Susan Sontag’s Regarding the Pain of Others, the panelists
will examine the impact of horrific images on our contemporary world,
and how and when they should be used.

$10 adults, $7 students/seniors, $5 members

Presented in conjunction with The Shooting of Jews in Ukraine: Holocaust
by Bullets.
