BETWEEN REAL AND SYMBOLIC SPACE. DEATH
REPRESENTATION IN WIKTOR TOŁKIN’S
MARTYROLOGY MONUMENTS
It is the representation of death in the monuments by Wiktor Tołkin found at the former concentration camps: Stutthof (at Sztutowo) and Majdanek (in Lublin) that is discussed. As an art historian, the Author confronts Tołkin’s monuments with the theorical framework related to the aesthetics of death representations in martyrology museums. The monuments were created in the late 1960s. The Author has studied how the monuments coincide with the contemporary exhibition strategies used in Holocaust-dedicated museums.
